Merry Christmas Grandad!
I hope Will is keeping you company up there and I hope your having a good old party (and if I know Will, you will be!)
Been thinking about you both a lot today and how much I miss you both, I feel it hits me more at this time of year than any other but I know you both wouldn’t want any of us getting upset, I love you Grandad, Love from Me, Ella-Lou, Lottie-Lou and Jordan xxx

Morning Alf,

We know that you 2 swines were playing silly buggers with me and Marg yesterday! Up first you dim the lights on Gurt in the front room, then when me and Seth are at your graves in broad daylight a fox comes running towards us!
Finally a white feather outside our old bedroom at Vine.
Don't you worry there is a not a day that goes by that we don't love and miss you buggers

Xxx

Miss you so much Dad xxxx

Dad, when I was small you caught me when I fell, the hero of my childhood and latter years as well, everytime I think of you my heart just fills with pride, and although I'll always miss you Dad, I know you're by my side, in laughter and in sorrow, in sunshine and in rain, I know you're watching over me, until we meet again xx sleep peacefully Dad love always Christine xxxxxx

Thank you for your endless love, that helps me through each day, and thank you for the memories that never fade away, you're the man I loved and I was proud to be your wife, and everyday in some small way I celebrate your life, and although its sad to think about the way things were before, when we are reunited it will be forevermore xxx loving you always and forever Marg xxxxxx

Although you can't be here with me
We're truly not apart,
Until the final breath I take
You'll be living in my heart xx
I love you grandad and I always will xx

We may not have the future, we only have the past, but our memories and love for you, forever that will last. Miss and love you always xxxxxx
