Dad, I am tryiing so hard, but its really difficult, i cant ring you, chat to you, hold you. The kids are finding this really hard, Danielle and Stacey cry all the time, Danni hasnt eaten anything since yesterday, she saw your coffin and wept. They really adore you. How you were so loved Dad. Everyone loved you, not just liked you. Your the funniest person many people had met. No-one disliked you. Your funny dirty jokes, many you sent to me i had to delete just incase the kids read them! Really dirty but mega funny!! Thats the sort of person you were. I can remember years ago we went to that fun day just outside Brompton-on-swale and Richard your best mate did a bungee jump..i asked if you were going to do it, you said the paracute jump was bad enough, thats the only time your "POO" was going upwards...ha ha ha. not going to right what you actually said!you loved shooting but when your fingers got tingerly you couldnt do it any longer,many of your friends have now past away, but i know your all having a party!You couldnt go anywhere without people knowing you. You really enjoyed going into Richmond on May day, doing the pub crawls, You started with many friends, but slowly over the years many mates died and your pub crawl mates got less and less. However you still went on your pub crawls, and many you cant remember, you had to ring your employers the next day to appologise for not turning into work due to sickness! You were honest and said it was down to over doing it, you probably blamed it on your mates buying the next round...your life was full of love for your friends and your family. Between us all we will keep your memory alive, as long as my heart is beating you will always be part of me.Dad I love you.xx
