I knew you before you loved her, but you told me that you would... you cherished her heart more than I thought a man ever could...

You were dedicated and driven to love like you thought a man should...

I'd often revere you for the things I never understood...

You were her husband, you were their father, and you were my dear friend... it's not fair that your journey has come to an end...

This is my tribute to a friend who mattered... it's because you were you, that we feel so shattered...

You broke the mould... so your story deserves to be told...

You'd tell me how you wanted to be a family man, one that was genuinely sincere...

Now I think of all the moments you'll miss as they go on without you here...

You didn't know your father, so leaving your sons was your biggest fear...

You never would have let them walk this earth without you being near...

You were her husband, you were their father, and you were my dear friend... it's not fair that your journey has come to an end...

This is my tribute to a friend who mattered... it's because you were you, that we feel so shattered...

You broke the mould... so your story deserves to be told...

You always stood tall!

Answered every call!

Never let them fall!

And gave them your all! We will all do our part to show them that man we saw!

This was never meant to happen. It wasn't supposed to be... Life can be cruel... and some things we can't see... often, slamming the door and taking the key...

You were her husband, you were their father, and you were my dear friend... it's not fair that your journey has come to an end...

This is my tribute to a friend who mattered... it's because you were you, that we feel so shattered...

You broke the mould... so your story deserves to be told...

You're gone to soon...

Way to soon...

Gone to soon...

Way to soon...

You're gone to soon...
