Thank you for giving me 48 wonderful years Dad, I still feel utterly heartbroken but am finding strength every day from the strength you always showed throughout life. See you on the other side Dad and have a jar at The Holroyd Arms in the sky, we have arranged you service the way you always said XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Dear Lord, Please grant my Dad peace and joy, all he brought to the table was the love, kindness and courage you ask of us in the time you allocate each of us. Help my sisters and me, my Uncle and Aunty to each heal from the pain we have when he joined you, thank you for blessing my life with the most wonderful father a man could ever wish for, Amen
