I genuinely had to shed a tear reading this. It is a beautiful eulogy of a man I am sure was incredibly proud to have you as his son. I am sure that even now, he is watching over you and is happy to see you enjoying your life and living it the way it makes you happy, and that clearly he had influence on with your passion for animals, and in particular your love for rats.

Where we loose one loved one, we always gain another, and you know that you'll always be like family to me ratty. *hugs tightly*

He sounds like a good man, and a loving and caring father.

Quite the full life, ne? It takes quite an adventurous spirit to be willing to move to another country, leaving all you've grown up with, in the hope of a better life. Which, by the sound of it, he well and truly accomplished, and shared with you.

*hug*
