The obituary notice of John (Ian) HIND

4 years ago today my whole world changed and I had to say goodnight for ever to you. Trying to navigate this new normal is hard work. I can't even put into words how much I miss you. It's been 4 years since I held your hand and told you I loved you. Since I hugged you tight. I know your at peace now papa. I love you so so much.

It's been
3 years
36 months
156 weeks
1095 days
Since I last seen that smile, held your hand and gave you a hug.
Every single one of those days I've thought about you and missed you 🤍. It hasn't gotten easier but I am learning to live with this new normal. You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option. I would do anything to have a silly call asking what time the bus is, or to come yup and watch you sleep after hearing you've had no visitors despite me just being up. I'd love to share one more "posh" coffee and cake with you.

2 years

For weeks I've dreaded this date coming around. It's been 2 years now and sometimes I feel it's passed by in the blink of an eye but then sometimes it's been so slow. Everyday my heart still hurts your not hear.
I said it last year as well but there has been so much I've missed out on telling you. I passed my HNC course and graduated. I would have loved you to have been there. I hate the fact I have no new pictures with you and I hate the fact that everyone's life seems to move on without you here but I'm still waiting for your phone call that I know I'll never get again.
I keep waiting for it to "get easier" like people said it would but it just seems to get harder.
I miss you every single day papa 💙💙

Been a year Dad have missed you and think frequently about times we had as a family

A whole year since I said goodbye to you for the last time. My whole world fell apart the day you passed and it’s never been the same since.
