Michael Shears MBE (Passed away 25 Jun 2026)

We shared some amazing times over the years, sorely missed 😔😇

Thank you for always showing how proud you are of me and the career I chose as well as being super excited for our chats on nature or our world travels whenever I saw you. I miss those chats with you but will remember the special relationship we had forever. I am so pleased you were able to meet Arlo and the happiness you had when you saw him on our visits. Love you very much and I am happy for you that you are back with Nan. I miss you xxx

Grandad, we all will miss you everyday but find comfort in that you are at peace and reunited with all your loved ones that went before you.

I can’t thank you enough for all the memories, moment filled of laughter and everything you have done to make our lives lighter and brighter. We will remember you always and I’ll make sure to keep an eye on dad for you.

Love you now and always, Carys xxx

Dad I hope you are at peace you fought so hard to stay with us. We miss you so much but know you’re out of pain now. Love you Tracy

Dearest Dad, how I miss you 😢 we chatted everyday since I retired and I have a huge hole in my life now. I know how much we loved each other even though neither of us are good at showing it. Rest easy now and I hope you are reunited with the rest of my family Mum, Paul and Glenn xx

To dear Dad, thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your love and support to both Glenn and I. Reunited with Mum, sweet dreams. Love Julie xxx

In loving memory of my dear grandad. You'll be forever missed. Love you lots xxx

"Wotcher!" I'll never forget the smile on your face each time we came round to see you and Nan. Or the look on your face as we drove round the monkey enclosure at Longleat as the rubber was pulled from all the cars in front of us. Thank you for everything and say hello to Dad for me xx

In loving memory of my Brother in Law Mike. Always remembered. Reunited with Jean Paul and Glenn. All my love Chris
