John Vickers Bennewith (Jackie) passed away at home on 31st march 1992
There is just so much i have got to say, i will never have enough space in the world to write it dad,
Not a day goes by when i dont think of you.
it might be 17 years to some people but to me those 17 years feels like yesterday.
till we meet again dad you are forever in my thoughts, im with you day and night
they say time is a healer, that i dont find true.
if i had one wish today
it would be for me to hold onto you.
i love and miss you so much dad,
every day is a step closer
till im with you again, miss u so much
love

thinking of you

Dad
Dad…so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.

What happened to those lazy days
when I was just a child;
When my life was consumed in you
in your love, and in your smile.

What happened to all those times
when I always looked to you;
No matter what happened in my life
you could make my gray skies blue.

Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning…it seems
the sound has been erased.

Dad, who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don’t fit.

Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I’d tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.

Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.

Today, Jesus, as You are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my dad
and give him all my love.

my dad

I love you dad I had so much to say
and now I don't get a chance,
because you have been taken away.
I hurt so bad and this is true,
is this all because of you.
I want you back to stop the pain,
I just want my dad again,
I didn't know much about you,
right from the very start,
and now I hold all these thoughts
right here in my heart.
I think of you every day,
wishing you didn't pass away.
I always shed a mountain of tears,
I've been waiting for you for years,
You didn't even know my favorite thing,
you didn't even know that I could sing
You didn't know my heart was so blue,
Did you ever love me too.
The day you called me to say "hello"
I knew you didn't have that long to go
I wanted to be with you there and than,
not just as a daughter but also a friend.
I don't blame you dad for the paths we all take
but before you know it , it could be to late.
So now all I can say is I love you Dad, and Good Bye....

love n miss u so much xxxxxxxx

daddys girl

He looks at her as she giggles.
she stares at him thinking that's my Daddy.
She gets older hardly seeing him, waiting,
no sign of him.
He comes home drunk smelling of liquor.
She doesn't care,
you're my Daddy she says and I love you.
Her mother's tired but stays with him for her children.
Daddy's little girl gets older,
she takes care of her Daddy.
He gets sick .
He is put in the hospital slowly dying,
she cries Daddy don't leave me.
Her heart is breaking slowing.
She hoping he gets better,
hoping the doctors are wrong.
Doctors give up hope but does not still hoping.
It gets harder for Daddy to breath,
three more breaths a Smile from daddy she misses it' he smiles again,
silence then he's gone.
She doesn't want to let go.
Its time to say good bye, good bye Daddy I love you.
