Dad (David Denholm) lived a colourful 80years and he did it his way!
Now running free like a wild horse.

DD I’ll always remember you. You, Billy Bob, Melissa and myself messing with beer mats and building towers in The Vernon. You always looked out for Melissa and I. We miss you dearly xx

Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.

And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

What a cracking day this was, dad. Remember the blow up sheep in the men's vending machine in Tap & Tumbler? It made you laugh so much. X

Mr Denholm, we only met on FaceTime with Alexis but we all feel like we know you. Alexis spoke about you everyday (and continues to too). I hope you’re enjoying an iron bru and I’m sure you’re putting the world right still. Rest easy x

God bless you DD our old friend and may you rest in peace. Very sad to hear of your passing. Diana and myself will treasure some great memories and some great laughs with you over the years. She'll miss her dancing partner from the Vernon days. And I'll miss the banter, the stories and you genuinely being just you. Rest easy my Celtic friend. "Ynwa" deepest sympathy to Alexis and all the family. Celtic Mick and diana 💚💚
