Meghan McCain marks her father’s birthday: ‘Happy birthday Dad. I love you.’

The conservative co-host of “The View” Meghan McCain on Thursday memorialized her late father’s birthday on social media, posting a photo of herself at the grave of the longtime Arizona senator.

Meghan McCain shared on multiple social media platforms a photo showing former Sen. John McCain’s (R) grave covered with flags, flowers plants and other ornaments, with the caption “Happy Birthday Dad. I love you.”

John McCain, the 2008 Republican nominee for president, died last year after a battle brain cancer. He was 81.

Meghan McCain also posted on the eve of the one-year anniversary of her father’s death, Aug. 25, remembering her dad with a photo of the two holding hands.

“Last year tomorrow, August 25th was the worst day of my life. I lost my hero. I miss my father every single day, I will for the rest of my life. Grief is omnipresent and relentless. For every single person who has sent prayers, love & support to my family, we are truly grateful,” she posted Saturday.

On Saturday, she also shared a photo of herself and her father sitting on a bench, saying she would “take a break from social” media until his birthday.

“The memory of my father’s life continues to guide me today, as it always will. Remember to cherish your loved ones. I still can’t believe my heart didn’t stop when yours did, Dad,” she wrote.
