  11. Pop… you will always be my safe place, my biggest supporter, and one of my favourite people in the whole world. You called me “Button,” and I don’t think I’ll ever hear that name again without smiling and tearing up at the same time.

    Some of my best memories are the simple ones — being out in the garden with you, or “helping” in your immaculate shed. And I say helping lightly… because I’m pretty sure I slowed you down more than anything. But you never made me feel like I was in the way. You made me feel important, like I belonged there with you.

    Pop you had this way about you— patient, steady, and quietly funny. And let’s be honest… you liked things a certain way. That shed wasn’t just clean… it was next level. I’m pretty sure you could eat your dinner off the floor in there — not that you would’ve let anyone.

    Pop you showed me what love looks like — not just in big moments, but in the everyday things. Showing up. Lending a hand. Having a laugh. Making people feel cared for without needing to say much at all.

    It still doesn’t feel real that you’re gone. And I don’t think it will for a while. But I know how lucky I am… because not everyone gets a Pop like you. Not everyone gets a love like that.

    I’ll miss you more than I can put into words. I’ll miss being “Button.” I’ll miss your voice, your presence, your quiet way of making everything feel okay.

    But I’ll carry you with me — in the little things, in the memories, in the way I love the people around me.

    Pop, thank you for everything. For every moment, every lesson, every laugh.

    I love you. Always.

    “Button” x
