My Father

Today marks 12 years since my father passed away. He had a sudden heartattack at work in Alberta while I was living in England. He was 49, one month away from his 50th birthday. It was very shocking but I guess we have come to terms with it over the years. We miss Dad and I wish I could see him with my kids - teasing and tormenting them like he used to do to my brother and I lol.... but hopefully they know he is around us. I just wanted to share some layouts that I made in honour of him over the past few months....
