There are few things harder in life than losing a parent, especially at a young age. Sadly, that’s exactly the situation that Bailey Sellers of Knoxville, Tennessee found herself in when her father died of pancreatic cancer when she was 16.

Knowing that Bailey would have a difficult time dealing with his death, her father decided to do something special for her that would allow him to celebrate some of her future milestones with her. In a truly heartbreaking move, her father prepaid for a bouquet of flowers to be delivered to Bailey along with a note on each of her upcoming birthdays.

On November 24, Bailey turned 21 in a day that was incredibly emotional for her, because she knew that this was the last bouquet of flowers she would receive from her deceased father.

“My dad passed away when I was 16 from cancer and before he died he pre payed flowers so i could receive them every year on my birthday. Well this is my 21st birthday flowers and the last. Miss you so much daddy,” she tweeted.

Her post immediately went viral, as people all over the world were touched by it.

“This is my last love letter to you until we meet again,” her father wrote in the note that accompanied the flowers. “I do not want you to shed another tear for me my baby girl for I am in a better place.”

“Be happy and live life to the fullest,” he continued. “I will still be with you through every milestone, just look around and there I will be.”

Please keep Bailey and her family in your thoughts and prayers! Find out more about this tearjerking story in the video below, and SHARE this so your friends and family can see this as well!
