This is my dad who I lost when I was only 11 years old, he also left 4 other children Lisa,
Richard,Claire(me), Sophie & Tom. He was a great fun loving father. He was also in the Army so he
served for his country,he worked very hard to gives us a nice home & a good life. I found it very
hard to come to terms with losing you dad but many years have gone by now and I no I can talk to you
an you are listening and watching all your children.
Also you are a grandad of 8 sadly they have never meet you but we have told them all about showed
them pictures of you and they all respect and love you very much your grandchildren are Jack 16,
Billy 14, Amy 13,Ben 11,Lillie 9, Lewie 7, Maisie 2 and the baby Alfie 9 months please watch other
them all an take care of them as our world is turning into a very nasty and they need all the love
and guidance from all of us.

what you always said to me it's the little things that make an impact.
Well love you loads & will speak to you often Dad always in my dreams. Claire (princess)xxxxxxxxx

This Tribute Is For This Weekend A Little Longer Than Usual. Sorry It's So Early I've Got A Busy Weekend Ahead
________________________________________________

I will light my candles as usual on Sunday



Our memories build a special bridge
When loved ones have to part.
To help us feel we're with them still
And soothe a grieving heart.

Our memories span the years we shared,
Preserving ties that bind.
They build a special bridge of love
And bring us peace of mind.


When tomorrow starts without me
And I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me;

I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today
While thinking of the many things
We didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you.
And each time that you think of me
I know you'll miss me too.

But when tomorrow starts without me
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name
And took me by the hand.

If tears could build a stairway,
And memories were a lane,
We would walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again.

Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know.


But now we know you want us
To mourn for you no more.
To remember all the happy times,
Life still has much in store.

Since you'll never be forgotten,
We pledge to you today:
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you'll always stay.


A million times we've needed you,
A million times we've cried.
If love could have saved you,
You never would have died.

In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still.
In our hearts you hold a place
No one will ever fill.

It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone.
Part of us went with you
The day God took you home.
