Uncle Harry, if the word gentleman didn't exist, they'd have made it up for you. The kindest, most generous, reliable man we've ever had the privilege to have in our lives. Things will never be the same, but the memories will always remain.
Your nephew Derek, Melanie, Charlee Jordan Cameron and Maisie.

God looked around his garden and found an empty space, he then looked down upon the earth and saw your wee tired face, he put his arms around you and lifted you to rest. Gods garden must be beautiful cause he only takes the best.
TRUE GENTLEMAN

Harry, loving brother of George, and brother in law to Margaret. Coming home will never be the same with your chair in Stewart and Sandra’s empty. They will miss you sorely, as will we all. Thanks to Stewart and his family, you had the best care and attention throughout the years and until the bitter end. My big brother, you will never be forgotten, and I’ll look after our Stewart.

With love from George, Margaret, and all the wider family in England, Canada, and Australia.

To live in the hearts of those who loved you is never to die.

We didn't need to ask Uncle Harry you were always there with that smile, your loving heart and those willing hands. Our hearts are broken, nothing will ever be the same again, but we know that you are in Heaven and that we will meet again.
Love you always xoxo

Till we meet again love Stewart
I'll always remember the door opening at 10.30 everyday and the click of the kettle for your tea and my coffee. What a brother-in-law !
Till we meet again in the Beautiful Land love Sandra
