The obituary notice of Patrick SMULLEN

Two years dad I feel you everywhere I think about you all the time I miss your hugs and I see you in my dreams I know we laugh together in my dreams and you support me and advise me but I still wish it was real but dreams is all I have and memories I cherish thank you for keeping me going and keeping me strong with this hole I can’t fill until I’m with you again love you as always your daughter

Dad we did it, today, this very minute we are sitting in our very own villa with our very own pool In Spain. Because of you. You encouraged us and excited us. I know this was your dream too and in your honour we live out our lives in Spain. It’s been an emotional day wishing you were here to witness this. To dive into the pool. But I know you are here watching and smiling and I know you helped make it happen for us.
Love and miss you so much and your spot by the pool is saved for you forever. With all my heart ❤️ SarahJ and David

Hey dad x x It’s happening... Christmas songs are everywhere, events in Schools, Christmas jumpers, lights, tress and naughty elves. I do get excited and I do look forward to seeing the kids faces etc, but Christmas has always been a big deal for you and me, trifle, karaoke, dressing like Santa, your lovely dinners, so many things and so many precious memories x You always went above and beyond for me and spoilt me rotten xx I’m so torn, as I know how much you like Christmas and deckies and family time, but every time I try to process the fact I’m doing it without you for the first time in my whole life my whole body shuts down, I can’t accept, it’s like it’s pretend and your gonna turn up but I know you won’t xx Well I know you will be us but not in the same way xx I miss you so so much and I hope that now you're feeling better up there and reunited with so many friends and family that you have an amazing Christmas xxx You're my true Father Christmas, dad and I’ll always love you and be thankful for the Christmas gone xxxxx Love you xxx Let’s hope we can have a lovely Christmas and dedicate it all to you xxxxx ❤️💔

Words cannot express the sorrow I feel for your beautiful family, I'm privileged to have known you all , gone far too soon, thinking of you ♥ xxx

I love you grandad 💗🌹
