to my special dad jeff torkington who died on monday 14th november 2005.a retired council worker from blackrod, formaly of bolton.
my dad died at the christie hospital while under going treatment for lung cancer.
he leaves a wife 4 grandchildren a son in law and myself his daughter.
everybody's dad is special but if you knew my dad you would know how special he was to me.
i am an only child and my dad was everything to me.
he was understanding although we did have our misunderstandings at times. but what family does'nt.
he was not just my dad he was my best friend the one i could rely on and turn to whenever i needed anything.
when he died my life fell apart,you think your dad will be there forever,i suppose he is in a way. because no matter what i do or wherevere i go he is always in my heart.
still love & miss you another year gone by but as the song says you are only a heartbeat away love jean xxx
On Angel Wings
On angel wings you do fly
On angel wings into the sky
On angel wings i do cry
Because those angel wings took you away
On angel wings the heralds sing
Is there no such lovely thing?
On angel wings you fly away.
I will see these angel wings again someday
When i am old and my time has come
On angel wings I will fly
Until I'm holding you once again
Smiling on angel wings.

For a father
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.
