Kate, you are so very special, and you touched the hearts of everyone who was lucky enough to know you, especially mine. I still cannot believe you’re gone, and I miss you more than words could ever say.
Thank you for being the most wonderful mum to Charlie and Becky, and for being such an amazing wife to me. You gave us so much love, happiness and so many beautiful memories that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. You fought so incredibly hard throughout your illness, showing such strength and courage, and I am so proud of you for everything you endured.
One of the saddest things for me is knowing that you never got the chance to meet our beautiful new grandson. It breaks my heart that you’re not here to hold him in your arms, to see his little face, and to experience the joy that he has brought into our family. He is such a beautiful little boy, and I wish with all my heart that you could have met him. It hurts so much knowing that you missed out on something so precious, and that he will never have the chance to know you in the way that we have known and loved you.
But I truly believe that, in some way, you will always be close to us. I hope you’re looking down on him, watching over him as he grows, and surrounding him with the same love that you gave so freely to everyone in your life.
You may no longer be here beside us, Kate, but you will always be part of our family, part of our lives, and forever in our hearts.
I love you so much, my darling, and I always will. �
Xx
