? grandad I still can't believe your gone, it doesn't seem right, I have a huge lump at the back of my throat every time I think or talk about u, even if I do something or see something that u have done or go past places u loved to go, you were one of the closest men in my life, and I am so happy and proud to be ur granddaughter, you was a huge part in my life and it makes be proud to know that u have seen me Change my life around and be there standing at my wedding looking so proud , and seeing ur great granddaughter , it's just a blessing, I never thought u would be taken away so suddenly, I tried so hard to get to u in time, you were a strong minded, gentle , stubborn but amazing man, and I just hope u knew how much u ment to me n how much I loved u, when I cry I can just imagine u saying " are u laughing at ur mum again", and then I think no grandad I'm crying because ur gone, the pain I'm feeling is undescribable , thankyou for being you, u were amazing and I am going to miss u so very much , I'm proud because ur MY grandad love u forever , sweetdreams xXxXx

I have many many memories of you John, the man I called dad for lots of years. I remember helping you make up the cockles, mussels, and prawns (you used to get me cleaning and peeling them yuk!) I remember making you your campino coffee, making you your mackerel in the microwave. Too many memories to write. You was a massive part in my life and for that I truly thank you! Still can't believe you are gone but I will cherish my memories of you and with you. It breaks my heart that my children will never know what a gentleman you was! Love you John, I'm not saying goodbye it's toodleoo me ducky ❤️❤️

No words can say how much I miss you grandad, everything is different with out you, every memory some how has you in it you always wanted a family and my oh my you got one a big one a very close one, and as amazing as that is, its also a bad thing because when we loose one it hurts so bad. you were the rock in this family the one who was always there, you told us story's held us when we was babies and made sure we knew you would hold us in your heart for eternity, I miss the stories you told me about when you was younger, when my dad was younger what nanna was like when you first met I even miss your complaining about how much food nanna has put on your dinner, they say Sometimes we have to fall before we can fly and your flying now grandad I love you I miss you and I will see you soon
