Rest easy grandad, still hard to believe you’re not here with us, a huge part of my life and I can’t thank you enough for what you’ve done for me, you really did love us all so much.

Tobi says that ‘grandad with the magic chair is watching us from the clouds’.

I worked with Bill in the 80's when he was the scaffold manager. He was fair minded, hard working and straight talking. A great man. He loved his family holidays at York. Sending love to the family at this sad time.
