Describing his death as the “hardest thing”, Donna penned: “One week without you, Dad.
“Nothing feels quite right since you’ve gone.
“Saying goodbye was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do, but I take comfort in knowing we were together, that you felt loved, and that you are no longer suffering.
“Cancer is such a cruel disease. Watching it take so much from you, and seeing the pain you endured, has broken my heart. It’s also been life-changing to witness how many families are walking this same path.”

“But most of all, I’m grateful to you dad. For the life you gave me, the sacrifices you made, memories shared, and for fighting as hard as you did so we could have more moments together.
“You will always be my favourite dance partner. X”
