Dad - we will miss you more than words can say, but will always treasure the happy memories and kindness you showed to everyone. You now join Mum in heaven and while our hearts are broken, there's comfort in knowing you are both together again.

Rest in peace Dad. You'll be forever loved and never forgotten. XXXX

George was a great match fisherman and an even greater person. Spent so many hours in his company in all weather he just loved being on the bank. RIP George back with your lovely wife that you cared for with unrelenting love
