Thank you for your kind words, Annika ❤️ I'm glad to have my sister's support through this too.

My sincerest condolences. We are never ready to lose a parent. I hope your Dad's books bring you comfort and great memories of your time together.

Rowan I am so sorry for your loss of your father. Such a blessing to inherit your father’s love for books. I hope reading gives you a special joy and the feeling of love from your father. ♥️

I’m so sorry you’re having to experience this, but I know you will have many, many wonderful memories to help you through your grief. Take care of yourself Rowan.

My deepest sympathies at this very difficult time, Rowan. ♥️

So sorry, Rowan. Praying for you and your sister, and hoping you find peace reading your dad's books.

My condolences, Rowan. In these first fragile days, when the world has quietly shifted and your father’s absence feels like a room that will never again hold his voice, know that you do not have to carry this alone. The love he gave you was never something that could be packed away or left behind. It lives now inside the way you move through “ordinary” moments such as reading. Please take care.

I’m so sorry for your loss

I'm so sorry, Rowan, my deepest sympathy.

Sorry for your loss Rowan. What a wonderful gift he’s given you.

I am truly sorry for your loss. I have never had to endure the agony of losing a parent and cannot even begin to imagine how overwhelming your grief must be right now🫂 It is never easy to lose someone. But losing a parent must be the worst of it all. Even though he is no longer physically with you, let him live on through your shared passion for books. Carry on his legacy with pride. He couldn’t have asked for a better son and daughter❤️


Wishing you all the love in this difficult time.
Take care of yourself, and be kind to yourself in your grief🫂

Condolences Rowan

That's a great legacy to receive, Rowan. My condolences for your loss. I'm sure he was very proud of you.

Sorry, Rowan. I lost my dad two years ago. I still haven't processed it properly.

My deepest, heartfelt condolences to you. Been through it myself, and still all these years later think of him often, and occasionally wanting to share something with it, that’s it’s as painful as if it just happened.
Hang in there, and enjoy him through your shared passion. ♥️

Thank you for such kind words, Tindra ❤️ They really touched my heart. These past few weeks have certainly been the most difficult of my life. I like to think that he would be proud, and sitting alongside me when reading some of his favourite books.

I appreciate the love and kindness. It means a lot. I'm grateful ❤️

Thank you for your kindness, Terence. We appreciate your words. We have certainly been sharing thoughts and memories of Dad recently - going through boxes of his, old photos. It's helping with our grieving process.
