It really breaks my heart that the only father that I have known has passed away and I couldnt be there. He will be sadly missed and he was someone I looked up to when I needed a shoulder to cry on or someone to comfort me when things went wrong. A big part of my heart has suddenly left and I hope that he is watching over me and his grandchildren. I WILL MISS YOU DAD. I only wish I had more time with him. Love your only daughter Chastity Clements.
