Michelle Ryan

Have we gone through your head?

But like we knew deep down in our gut, we knew in the bottom of our hearts that there's not a hope.

If daddy was anywhere in the world,

he would have made contact some way to say, look, things got too hard.

I need space.

I need to get my head right.

Whatever the case is.

And like, there's not... Because I had such a close bond and a close relationship with Daddy, let me tell you, there is not...

There isn't any one thing that I'd have said that I would have been worried about him because we used to always chat.

We used to always talk like if he wanted an opinion, he'd come to me or if he wanted to chat, he'd come to me.

And if there was something we'd say,

that he felt, well, Jesus, I can't really go to Shelley with that.

He would have went to his brother, which he was very close to as well.

So that had all of that tied up tight.

You know what I mean?

There was nothing that I didn't know about Daddy.

Do you know that kind of thing?

Like, as I said, I could have set my clock to that man.

I swear to God, even if I was going down to town before I'd had my hand on the handle to open the front door, he'd have rang, Shelley, you're not going down to town today.

Like, it was ridiculous, but that's the way it went on.
