@rhipratchett Lovely picture of you both.
Can honestly say, I never read the books but my mum did.
@rhipratchett
It's a beautiful photo, though I did do a double-take seeing him without his hat!
You never quite get over losing your parents; I hope you get some comfort knowing that your father will never be forgotten and that so many people around the world miss him too: one of the wisest, funniest, most compassionate writers ever x

@rhipratchett I was just browsing the Terry Pratchett shelf of my local bookstore before reading this... It never stops hurting, but hopefully the fact he touched so many lives with such an incredible positive impact helps a little.
@rhipratchett Your father made me a better human through teaching me that all people are just people no matter what they look like or where they come from. And he taught me this not with a wagging finger but by making me giggle and have so much fun over and over again. I am very grateful.
He is and he will be remembered.
Such a touching picture and memory fellow citizen Rhianna Pratchett.
Thank you for sharing it.
I hope he received the best medical care possible, and passed peacefully.

Every call I join from home there are comments about this shelf in particular. I have yet to steel myself to read Rob's biog but it will happen
I speak his wit and wisdom almost every day.
