Brooke Warne on her Instagram posted: “2 years today, Dad. It’s been the slowest and quickest 2 years without you. I feel like you were just here being silly with us and talking about how good the new season of Peaky Blinders is, and we will watch the next episode together when you come home. Life really doesn’t make sense without you here. We try and make you proud every day. I miss you; I love you forever.”
