MISS YOU DAD

Hi dad
I cant believe its 3yrs on the 4th of november.It still feels like yesterday you went to sleep and left us.I miss you so much and wish you was here so i could talk to you about my wedding. I know you cant be there on the day but i know you will be looking down at me from up there. And the reason i have decided to go away and get married is because you aren't there to give me away.Like you used to say to me "Look jo if your going to get married go away and do it so there you go!!!!Thats what i'm doing take care love you from your daughter joannexxxxxxxxxxxxx
