My Dad Thomas Anthony Rice, He Liked To Be Called Tony. He Always Knew How To Make People Smile, He Always Made Funny Faces, He Was A Roofer All His Life, He Used To Buy Toy Cars When He Was Younger & Pull It All Apart Just To Learn Him How To Put It All Back Together, He Was Known By Alot Of People He Had A Lovely Family & Really Good Friends Who You Could Ask For Who Cared About Him Alot.
He Made Everyone Smile When We Where In The Car With Him No Matter Where He Ended Up He Beeped His Horn At Anyone He Saw. He Would Do Anything For Anyone If He Ever Had Problems He Would Convince People He Was Ok We Never Knew Any Different Because He Always Carried That Cheeky Smile With Him, He Was Loved & Blessed By So Many & He Will Always Be In Our Thoughts. We Love & Miss Him Loads. R.I.P Dad I Love You xxx

DOLLY PARTON - DADDYS HANDS...... SONG THAT REMINDS ME OF MY WONDERFUL DAD.......... I Remember Daddys Hands, Folded Silently In Prayer, And Reaching Out To Hold Me, When I Had A Nightmare You Could Read Quite A Story, In The Callouses And Lines, Years Of Work And Worry Had Left Their Mark Behind.
I Remember Daddys Hands, How They Held My Mama Tight And Patted My Back, For Something Done Right There Are Things I've Forgotten, That I Loved About The Man But I'll Always Remember The Love In Daddys Hands.... I Remember Daddys Hands, Wor...kin 'Til They Bled Sacraficed, Unselfishly, Just To Keep Us All Fed, If I Could Do Things Over, I'd Live My Life Again And Never Take For Granted The Love In Daddys Hands.
I love you all the world dad xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Just For You Dad
The love we have for dad Will never fade away. We’ll think of him, our special friend Throughout each passing day. We’ll walk into the room And see his empty chair; Although we know he’s resting, We’ll feel his presence there.
The memories of his laughter, His warm and loving smile, His eyes so full of happiness, His heart that of a child. Memories are forever Be they laughter or of tears, Memories we will treasure Through all the forthcoming years.
You can shed tears that he is gone, Or you can smile because he lived, You can close your eyes and pray that he will come back, Or you can open your eyes and see all that he has left. Your heart can be empty because you can't see him Or you can be full of the love that you shared, You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember him and only that he is gone Or you can cherish his memory and let it live on, You can cry and close your mind be empty and turn your back, Or you can do what he would want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
We'll always remember that special smile, that caring heart, that warm embrace, you always gave us. You being there for us through good and bad times, no matter what. We'll always remember you Dad because they'll never be another one to replace you in our hearts, and the love we will always have for you.
The Best Dad In The World
Dear Dad in Heaven I sit here and i ponder how very much I'd like to talk to you today There are so many things That we didn't get to say I know how much you care for me
And how much I care for you, And each time that I think of you I know you'll miss me too. An angel came and called your name And took you by the hand and said
Your place was ready in Heaven, far above . . . And you had to leave behind, all though you dearly loved You had so much to live for, you had so much to do . . . It still seemed impossible, that God was taking you.
And though your life on earth is past, in Heaven it starts anew You'll live for all eternity, just as God has promised you. And though you've walked through Heaven's gate We are never far apart For each time that we think of you, You're right here, deep with-in our hearts.
I Wanted You To Know......
I Was Sitting Here In Heaven And Having A Wonderful Day. I Started Thinking About You And All The Things I Didn’t Get A Chance To Say.
I Don’t Want You To Worry About Me And Please Don’t Shed Any Tears, Because I Will Wait For You In Heaven, If It Takes A Hundred Years. Everything I Had On Earth I Have In Heaven Too!
My First Day Here My Body Became Brand New. It Is Really Pretty Here And I Love My New Home, Although Your Heart Is Broken Because My Body Is Gone.
My Love Will Always Be There As You Go Along The Way, Just Take A Peek Inside Your Heart There Is Where I’ll Stay. Know That I Loved My Family And All My Friends Too, My Thoughts Will Be With Each Of You Your Whole Life Through.
