One year already wow! That’s the first anniversary of every event passed now but I do believe the next future ones will hurt as much. Miss you deeply dad things have changed so much for me over the last year and I wish I could share it with you, but if this is where I have to say I love you then here goes! I love you with every breath and heart beat I have in me and I hope you will be waiting for me up there. Oh and I am looking after your flowers don’t stress 💐

You were such an amazing, selfless and inspirational man Grandad. You always took care of Grandma no matter how ill you became even when you could no longer take care of yourself. I rememeber as a child we'd come round every Wednesday and watch Midsomer Murders together and you'd always make sure the biscuit tin was full so we could dunk them in cloudy lemonade😂😂 You'd pick me up and look after me everytime I took ill or my narcolepsy was bad at primary school. I remember you'd always tuck me into bed in the spare room and put a film on for me to watch whilst I'd try to nap. Though a lot of times the film you'd choose weren't always appropriate "Here you go Faye this looks like a good kids film for you" it was only bloody Carry On Camping!😂😂😂 We'd sit on the edge of Grandma's bed whilst she watched tele holding hands and take it in turns to squeeze eachother's fingers. Last time I saw you I squeezed your fingers but you never squeezed back. I will miss you forever. I love you Grandad 💖

You know all through my childhood, right through to being an adult you NEVER failed to make me laugh, sometimes uncontrollably. You always made such an effort to take care of us when we came over, taking us out shopping and you always had our favourite biscuits and cloudy lemonade on hand! We were so lucky to have you. I'll always cherish the time you spent with my kids, watching you and Ava in your little greenhouse picking tomatoes in the summer and you giggling at her chasing Tommy up the garden, holding Ronnie for the first time and telling me and Brad how much you thought he looked like Ava. We all loved you very much and you won't ever be far from our thoughts. Rest now and be free ❤
Love you lots Grandad
Laura, Brad, Ava, Ronnie and Zeus xxxxxxx

Grandad,
You were an amazing human being. Always a kind, caring, loving and generous gentleman without fail. You loved teasing everyone and were very good at it and your laugh was infectious. You always welcomed everyone into your home with open arms. I've never heard and still don't hear a bad word said about you. All my life I saw how much you loved your garden you treated it with as much love and care as you did people and it showed. I remember how more often then not especially if it was decent weather we'd come to visit and find you working away in your garden and remember as a kid at times helping you pick the tomatoes and green beans. Love and miss you forever x x x x x
