Well this is my lovely grandad, and well he has had a hetic life but he coped with it, he is the
most down to earth person anyone would have ever met. He had 2 wifes die of cancer, and then when he
got it, it as a bit if a bombshell really, but he got through it with the medication, to help keep
it away, and then he fel ill, and it was multiple organ failure due to the medictaion. Whn he died i
was angry because he should still be here now. He had an effect on everyone he met and it was a god
effect, he had a twinkle in his eye as most peopele say, i guess he was a bit of a ladies man. I
couldnt of done most of the things ive done if it wasnt for my grandads words of wisdom to help me.
i loveyou and i miss you xx

Hello again Dad

Hello Dad, I've been thinking a lot about you and missing you so much over the last few weeks. They say time heals, but it seems to take a long time. Over the last coulple of weeks I've been remembering you laughing again, which has cheered me up so much because you laugh so well and I'm trying to keep that memory in my mind. I know things will get better over time and I will remember all the good bits and put the end bit aside. I will always love you, my special perfect Dad. Denise

Love you lots grandad!

Well there is a lot i could say about my grandad,all of them being good.But unfortunatley i can only put a small thing about him.Well firstly i wanted to say no matter where he was in the world everybody could tell he was one special guy.My favourite memories are probably when grandad came round on a Wednesday,and me and him loved playing bowling on the wii.But he got really good and the last time we palyed he beat me(well done grandad).Another main thing i love to do is when he came round me and toni used to love giving him a massive hug.Probably the best and my favourite memory is when me and my family went to the isle of white with my nan and grandad.It was such a laugh and we all love you grandad.
Love from Tyler and Toni Mari XX
