To my father,

I love you more than words could ever tell. A piece of my heart will be forever missing. Your love was unconditional, and your hugs could cure all. There will not be a day that goes by that I will not miss you. I’m not sure how to go through this life without you, but you taught me to never give up and to keep fighting and that is exactly what I will do. I love you with all my heart always and forever.

Your little girl.
