Shane Warne’s Children: While trying to overcome the untimely demise of Shane Warne, his three children have paid tribute to the legendary spinner, saying that the void left in their hearts by the passing of the former cricketer cannot be filled with anything. Warne died on Friday on the island of Koh Samui, Thailand. Warne’s 22-year-old son said he would “try to be happy” despite the loss of his “best friend”, while his daughter Samar wished she could hug her father tightly.
Jackson, who gained popularity through the reality TV show SAS Australia last year, said, “To my brother, my best friend, my father, I love you so much. I don’t think anything can fill the void left in our hearts by your passing. Sitting at the poker table, strolling the golf course and eating pizza will be like never before. But I know you wanted me to be happy always, no matter what. So that’s what I will do, try to be happy. I will miss you dad and you really were the best father and friend. I love you very much, see you soon.
Warne’s eldest daughter Brooke said her father passed away so soon and that “life is cruel”. She said, ‘I will always keep our last memories of sitting together laughing and telling jokes. we were happy. We are alike in many ways and I always used to joke that I got your qualities. I will never be happy and proud now that I have got your qualities. I am lucky to always proudly call you my father. I will love you till eternity. I will always miss you.
Warne’s youngest daughter Samar said, ‘Dad, I am missing you so much from now on. I wish I could hug you tightly if I knew that those are my last moments with you and your last breaths are just a few minutes away. Our time has been stolen. I wanted to spend more holidays with you, laugh, wish you a loving good night, see you again in the morning, talk about how our days went and feel safe when you hugged me .’
Warne’s father Keith and mother Brigitte said they have no words to describe their grief. He described the night of March 4 as the beginning of a never-ending nightmare for his family. “It is an impossible task for us to find the words to describe our grief and we cannot imagine a future without Shane,” he said in a statement. Hope the happy memories will help us deal with this sad time.’
