Five years ago today, I lost my father, and the weight of his absence is still profoundly felt. He was more than just a father to me; he was my confidant, mentor, and source of endless inspiration. We had dreams of working together on business ventures, and Wellrobe is a testament to those shared aspirations. Honoring his memory and making him proud drives everything I do, and I will never abandon the dreams we crafted together.

From a young age, my father taught me the importance of dreaming big and working hard. Our journey wasn’t just about business; it was a deep bond that fortified our relationship. Every design choice, business decision, and step forward was influenced by his guidance. Even though he is no longer here, his spirit and lessons remain with me daily.

One of my most treasured memories is the list we created together, outlining our dreams and goals. It was a symbol of his optimism and ambition. Fulfilling those goals now fuels my determination. Whenever I face challenges, I revisit that list and remember why I began this journey. His faith in me empowers me to overcome any obstacle.

I proudly embrace being a daddy’s girl. My father was my hero, always there for advice, support, and unconditional love. He instilled in me the values of kindness, perseverance, and authenticity. These lessons have shaped who I am and continue to influence every choice I make.

I often reminisce about our conversations, shared laughter, and the wisdom he imparted. While his physical presence is missed, his values and love remain deeply embedded in my heart. I am eternally grateful for the bond we shared and the memories that keep his spirit alive.

Let’s honor the remarkable men who have shaped our lives, imparted invaluable lessons, and continue to inspire us, even in their absence.

To my father, my guiding star and best friend, I miss you every day. Your legacy lives on in Wellrobe and the dreams we pursued together. I promise to uphold our vision, never give up, and make you proud.

Thank you for everything, Dad. This is for you.
