I'm with you there Andy I know exactly how you feel
I still think of my mum & dad and miss them so much. My only comfort (if that's the right word) is that they had there lives, and good lives, and are hopefully back together somewhere enjoying a new life. Your Dad will always be special and it's perfectly normal to want him to walk back through the door and carry on like it was years ago. It's right to never forget them and their influence on you as a person. Whenever I'm doing any DIY my dad is always with me in spirit telling me to do a proper job to the best of my ability and not cut corners....unless the job is to actually cut the corners off something that is. I too didn't want to be exactly like my dad when I was younger but have turned into a clone of him, with his faults as well as hopefully some good points, and now I'm happy with that. Enjoy the memories mate because remembering someone somehow keeps them alive. Embrace his memory. Lovely tribute and he'd be proud of you for thinking of him the way you do. Good happy thoughts mate.
