The last one standing. All the aunties and uncle's down the close. Treasured those days and felt safe having uncle John, auntie Ivy and Nanna Fry in my life.
Sending lots of love ❤

To my gorgeous John, you truly were like my very own grandad growing up, I have so many memories of you, my favourite has to be going to Malta with you, Tarn and Ivy, you had to tame all three of us, it was such good fun and that fun continued every time I see you in later life. I’ll always have a special place in my heart for you. Love you loads and shine bright ❤️

Dear Grandad, I’ve been very lucky to have had the pleasure of calling you my Grandad for 50 years. You have shown me nothing but kindness and love. Your gentle nature and cracking sense of humour will be missed by all who love you ❤️ Xxx
