My dad passed away unexpectedly in January aged 77.
I went to the cemetary today and planted a rose bush (he loved his roses) and left a fathers day card as I wont be about tomorrow.
Happy Fathers Day Dad x

My own father passed away over 25 years ago - however my thoughts are with my father in law, who is now 80, but has recently been diagnosed with asbestos related lung cancer, I will miss him a lot more when he goes.....

my dad died 13 years ago - funny really (in a not very funny way) how quickly time goes by.

I know what you mean, it's been 10 years for me but it seems like yesterday.
A Happy Fathers Day to all Daddies everywhere. :D
My Dad died yonks ago, but for Anton's Dad we mowed the back lawn and got him some chocolate and cake as he's way too skinny. :)
I hope everyone has a GOOD FATHERS DAY :)
I lost my Dad 4 years ago at 68 he used to love Fathers day, he was like a big kid at Christmas when it came to fathers day. He used to look after us and never seen us go short. I'm filling up here because I miss him that much even after 4 years I still look at the picture on the wall and think to myself why him.

Bought my dad a High Vizability Jacket to go over his leathers as he rides a motorbike. We're having a BBQ later on, when my sister comes down.

Couldn't have been better timing either, a few mins after I got back my Dad came home too! He's non-the-wiser :)
Just been out for lunch for Fathers' Day to our local restaurant, where we are regular customers (one of the Est Est Est chain).
Nice food, and we got 50% off the bill (staff discount as my son works there as a busboy), and then the manageress took my meal off the bill as well, as her gift to me for Fathers' Day - result total bill £51 for two course lunch with drinks for 5 people; gave them £9 tip, to round it up. :D
