Legendary Australian cricketer Shane Warne’s daughter Summer has shared a heart-wrenching post a couple of days after her father’s sudden demise last week. Warne, who was 52-years-old passed away due to a sudden heart attack in Thailand.
The spin wizard’s shocking demise left everyone in shock with tributes coming in from every corner of the planet. Remembering her father with a lengthy and poignant post on Instagram, Summer wrote:
“There is no words. It feels like I’m dreaming, waiting for someone to wake me up and tell me that you’re okay. This can’t be real life. There’s no way that life is this cruel to the most beautiful people on this earth. There’s no way that I will never hear your soft voice again telling me that “everything is going to be okay” or how “proud” you are of me, or simply saying “goodnight” or “good morning SJ I’ll see you in the morning, I love you…”
She added:
“Moments before the world took you away from me, we were jamming to “Summer of 69”, and “I’ve had the time of my life” Talking about how much you loved that song and seeing your smile light up the whole room while we danced and couldn’t stop laughing at each other. God you made me laugh dad. Little did I know that was the last time I would ever see you dad. I’d do anything to hear that laugh again, anything to hear your voice, anything to have one of your cuddles, anything to be with you again just one last time.”

Regretting that she couldn’t be with her father Shane Warne during his last moments, Summer wrote:
“I wish in your final moments before you went off to heaven and before you took your last breath that I could tell you everything was going to be okay, and to hold your hand and tell you how much I love and look up to you. I took our time for granted dad, and I would do anything to have more time with you on this earth. Our time was robbed, and I wish you would come back to me.”
Concluding her note, Summer wrote that she will continue to make her father proud.
“You may not be alive dad, but you will forever live inside my heart; I will cherish the memories till my time is up on this earth and I am reunited with you again. I love you dad, forever and always will be my Father no matter where you are. Love your little girl SJ, and I will continue to make you proud,” she signed off.
Meanwhile, according to reports, Shane Warne’s state funeral will be held at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). A crowd of 100,000 people is expected to bid a final farewell to the spin king. The public memorial is likely to be held after Warne’s family mourn him during a private service.
