That's an awful thing to happen to such a young lady!!
No little girl should be without their daddy...or mum for that matter!
I have two little girls, and to think how thier lives would be without me really saddens me : (
That said, I bet he's looking down now proud as punch at how his little girl as turned out ; )
Always remember him, he sounded like a good man!!
I take it he was a blue Ammy?
Moss Side Blue :)

Ammy said:It's his anniversary today. He died when I was 8. Ages ago. I have very few memories of him. He was very tall and quiet and he read a lot.
I remember him coming in from work, in his Bike leathers smelling of rain and he used to sing Tony Christie's Amarillo and Elvis' His Latest Flame to me, because they were the only songs that sounded like they had my name in them.
Silly to miss someone who went so long ago and played such a small part in my life. But still makes me sad :(
Sorry to hear that Ammy, Mrs Rushts mum died when she was 8 to Cancer. It must be the worst thing that can happen to a child, nothing wrong with shedding a tear on Anniversaries/ Birthday's etc, take care.

Your dad is your dad. My dad passed in 2000. My eldest lads band had a gig today playing loads of modern music. They played the Elbow song (throw your curtains wide, not sure what it's called) and I just started balling like a 5 year old. I miss my dad, and my mum who passed in 1987.

I lost my mam 40 years ago, I still miss her, my dad went only a few years ago. We will never forget them and there is nothing silly in you taking a moment to remember yogurt dad. He shaped the woman you are today.

Ammy, Thanks for that. My own dad introduced me to the Main Stand ("so why are we sitting down dad, not standing up?") back in 1967 and didn't live to see May 2012. Most of my earlier memories are based on strange smells, sights and sounds like you.
