Uncle Billy so sad that you have left us but glad you are back with aunty Margaret and free from pain. The tears run down my face as I write this some of sad feelings but most are for the happy times that we have shared as family which you were a massive part and for the happy hours worked together at South Hetton WMS Club..
This was one Christmas present that I was not expecting. God bless you and may he wrap his arms around Julie Alan and their families and let them know that we will always be there for them.
Good night and God bless you I love you xxxxx
