Father's day without you is going to be hard. But we will remember you always when we still feed the birds, go walking in the countryside and enjoy a roast dinner for tea on father's day.
All the best with your new journey ahead.

Dear Grandad,
I am sorry that you are no longer here but have peace in the knowledge you had a wonderful life that touched so many.
The memories of us all having to line up for a “family photo” and staying still whilst you took several photos to ensure there was one for each of the grandchildren’s family albums, will always bring a smile to my face.
Thank you for the wisdom you gave me from sharing your life lessons and impactful stories.
I hope you can rest in peace reunited with Grandma.
All our love, Lauren, Ollie & Harry x
