Knowing you, there must be one heck of a party going on in Heaven right now. One day, I am going to see you again and join that party, and you are going to have to introduce me to all your new friends. Until then, keep rocking on, Dad. I love you.

This day is never easy, but it is one that I look forward to at the same time. I love thinking back on all of the memories of your time here on Earth. Thank you for the laughs we shared and the joy you gave me. Happy birthday in Heaven, Dad.

I remember playing sports when I was younger and hearing your voice cheer me on from the sidelines. On days like today, when I really listen, I can still hear your voice cheering me on from Heaven. Happy birthday in Heaven to my number one fan.

If you were here today, we would be grilling steaks, sharing a drink, and I would be telling you funny stories about things I got away with when I was younger. Though you are not here, I can still crack open a cold one in your honor. Happy birthday, Dad.

When I was younger, I would yell “I have the best Dad in the world!”, because I looked up to you so much. Then, I grew a little and would say “I have the smartest Dad in the world!”, because I had never met anyone smarter. As an adult, I would think “I have the wisest Dad in the world”, due to all your advice. Today, I know that I was always right. You were all of those things and more. Happy birthday to the wisest, smartest, and best man I ever knew.

I have been told that time heals everything, but something about this day still makes me feel a little sad, and I don’t think that this will go away so soon.

Dad, wishing you a very happy birthday in Heaven. I miss you so much.

Dear Dad, you always told me how I am your sunshine, and today, with the soft warmth shining down on me, I know that you are also mine. Happy birthday on such a beautiful day.

Throughout every day of my life, I am faced with different challenges and issues, and I stop and think about what you would do and what you would tell me to do. I think that is what makes a great father: the ability to be so amazing that your wisdom is still in effect long after you are gone. Happy birthday in Heaven.

Dad, I just want you to know that I am down here trying to be the best father I can be, and I am so blessed to have had the absolute best possible role model to look up to. You would be so proud of me. Happy birthday to my hero.

Today, the family is going to get together to celebrate a family member who made this all possible. Thank you for being the glue that holds this family together, even after your passing. You will always be the best person I know. Happy birthday in Heaven.

There are tiny things in life that make me think of you and smile. I will lose the TV remote or change the thermostat, and I will think: ‘hey, my Dad used to do this’. Today, you are in my mind because it is your birthday, but I just want you to know that even without an official reason to celebrate, you are still on my mind. Happy birthday, Dad. You will be with me always.

Dad, it feels like just yesterday that you were teaching me how to ride a bike, showing me how to drive a car, or moving me into college. I will carry all of those moments in my heart forever. Happy birthday to my first teacher and best friend. Heaven’s lucky to have you!

Dad, you were never the loudest voice in the room, but you were the loudest presence. Yours was a quiet dignity, and all I aim to be in life is someone that you would nod to and be proud of, even now, from Heaven. Happy birthday, Dad. This is all for you.

Sometimes, I will be walking outside, and I will see the car you used to drive on the street, or I might hear your name being called by someone. They are little moments, but they feel like signs sent from Heaven to remind me that you are still here with and for me. Happy birthday, Dad. I will love you always.

I cannot even describe how much I would give to see your face again. Your presence has always been the most comforting thing for me. Today, I feel you with me, and that is the best feeling of all. Happy birthday, Dad. I miss you so much.

Happy birthday, Dad. You were always the man I would call when I got really exciting news or when I needed to cry. No matter what, I could always depend on you to celebrate or mourn with me. I still talk to you to this day, and even though you are in Heaven now, I am comforted in the feeling that you are still listening.

Even though you are gone, I still feel your gentle hand protecting me every day. It feels as though, when you passed away, God decided to make you my guardian angel. I am truly honored to be in your care for the rest of my life. Happy birthday, Dad. We will meet again soon.

I know you are still here, because I can see your spirit and your love in the eyes of my own kids. Something about that is the work of God Himself. Happy birthday, Dad.

I wish you were here with us to celebrate your birthday and make us all laugh like you were so good at doing. Mom is doing the best that she can, but there is just nothing like one of your corny jokes. Happy birthday, Dad. You are dearly missed.

Something about your life sounds like it could have been a fairytale or a dream. You married an amazing woman, had incredible kids, and when you passed on, you left them knowing that your love is still with them. That has to be the happiest ending to your life that could have been. Happy birthday, Dad, and happy ever after.

God decided that it was time for you to go home to Him, and though I am sad that you have left us, I am so comforted in knowing that you are with Him forever more. I hope He is throwing you the biggest birthday party ever in Heaven!

I hope they have barbecue, beer, and football in Heaven, because I know those were always some of your favorite things! Happy birthday in Heaven, Dad.

I keep telling myself that I am going to see you again and someday we will be able to celebrate your birthday together again, but it can be hard. I just want you to know you are in my thoughts today, Dad. I love you. Happy birthday in Heaven.

Dear Dad, your spirit lives on with the rest of us here on Earth as we all gather to celebrate a man who always knew exactly what to say. In your memory I say, happy birthday in Heaven.

While you are up there partying it up with grandma and grandpa, I hope you all take a minute to look down and join the party we are throwing for you too. Happy birthday, Dad.

Even though you are gone, you will never be forgotten. We will carry your torch and continue to live with the joy that you instilled in us from the moment I was born. Happy birthday to the most amazing father I could ever have asked for. Heaven is the luckiest, because it has you!

Hey Dad, if I could have one more conversation with you in this life, I would ask you: ‘are you proud of me?’. I want you to know that each day I wake up with one goal in mind, and that is to earn the answer to that question. One day, we will meet again in Heaven, and I will ask you, but until then, I am living to make you proud. Happy birthday, Dad. I love you.

They say not to mourn the loss too long and to instead begin to celebrate the life that you did live. I think today is a bit of both, because while I am full of sadness that you cannot be here with us any longer, just thinking of you makes me want to smile. Happy birthday, Dad!

Dear Dad, I remember how you used to pray with me before I went to sleep each night. You would tell me that God is listening, and I was always so amazed. I hope that you are listening now, because I really want you to know that I am thinking of you today, and I love and miss you very much. Happy birthday in Heaven.

Happy birthday to the most amazing father to myself, husband to Mom, and all-around person. You truly were the most dedicated man to every person in your life, and you have shown us how to live better ourselves. We miss you so much. Happy birthday in Heaven.

If I could see you one last time, I do not think I would say anything. I think I would probably just give you a big hug and hold you for as long as I could. Happy birthday, Dad. I love you so much.

Hi Dad, I just want you to know that I am thinking about you today, as I do every year. Your birthday marks the day that one of the best people who ever walked this Earth was born, and I swear I will celebrate it in your memory every time, because you are a man worth remembering. I love you so much. Happy birthday in Heaven!

I was always so proud when I walked into school after you had done my hair. It takes a strong man to care so well for his daughter, and you were the strongest of all. Thank you for caring for me so much. Happy birthday in Heaven!

I think the best memories I have with you are simple ones where we are talking about nothing and laughing about silly jokes. That joy is what I will carry with me forever, because though you may be gone, that feeling never will be.

I wish you would be there to walk me down the aisle in person one day, but I know that no matter what, you will still be there with me, looking down from Heaven. I miss you so much, Dad.

To my mighty protector, from when I was small to your last day on this Earth, you were always there to comfort me from life’s hardships. That is a feeling I will never forget. I love you so much. Happy birthday in Heaven.

Happy birthday Dad. Over the years, you have taught me how to be myself, to stay true to my morals, and to never give up. These lessons will be with me forever, and I owe it all to you.

One of my favorite things was every night that you would come and tuck me in. I can still feel you kissing my cheek goodnight. I know today, I will feel it just as strongly. Happy birthday, Dad. I love you.

The best feeling in the world has always been receiving one of your hugs. They are the most comforting thing in the world, and I miss them so much. Today, I am sending a million hugs to you in Heaven, and I know I can feel them back too. Happy birthday.

Having a daughter like me must have required a lot of patience, but I remember you loving me so well, and I am just so honored that all you did you did for me. Happy birthday to the most patient man I have ever known.

Happy birthday to the man that showed me what it meant to be a leader and to lead with kindness and respect. You will always be the reason I’ve become the woman I am today. I love you.

Dad, I miss the way you would hold me when I was sad. There was something so comforting about you always being there for me, arms outstretched. I know that one day you will be able to hold me again, but until then, I just want you to know how much I love and miss you. Happy birthday to the greatest father ever.

Over the years I was blessed enough to have you in my life, you showed me what a man is supposed to be, and you have set a standard for my life. I know what I am worth because of you, and I am so grateful for that. Happy birthday to the best man I have ever known.

No matter how old I get, I will always be your little girl. I will always be the one who held onto your ankle as you walked around the house, who stole bites off your plate, and who looked up to you more than anyone else. Happy birthday in Heaven, from your baby, forever and always.

Happy birthday, Dad. This day is always hard for me, but there are little things that comfort me so much. For one, I kept your sweatshirt, and I wear it with pride on this day, because it belonged to the man who did so much for me and for everyone around him. These are the memories I hold closest to my heart. I love you.

I may not remember every word that you ever said to me. I may not remember the small things like when you held the door or bought me lunch. In time, I may not remember some of the memories that made up such an amazing Dad, but I will always remember the love that you showed me, your little girl. Happy birthday up there, Dad. I am sending you so much love.
