To the lovely Peter, forever in our hearts and missed so much, by so many.

I'll never forget all the great things you did for us and never once did I hear you moan at lending a helping hand to anybody. Peter, you are a prime example of how to be a father, grandfather, friend and a gentleman - many have learnt from your loving ways and you sure as hell have left a footprint on an abundance of hearts.

Taken far too young and cruelly, I admire the strength you possessed and will miss it dearly. Sleep tight Peter, make those angels chuckle, and rest assured I will look after your family in anyway I can.

Thank you to St Giles for giving Peter the respectful care he deserved in such a tragic situation.

Dad. It's hard to list all the great memories, all the times you've been there for me, all the times you've helped fix my mistakes, the way you never judged me and let me lead my own path in life. I have always gone forward with the comfort you were always there. There's so much more I wanted to say to you, but never did, but I know you knew, you knew everything! I am so proud and lucky to have been able to call you Dad and have the memories you left me on how to be a great Dad, Grandad and enjoy life. Please take comfort in my promise that I will look after Mum and Jo so you can now rest easy and pain free. I miss you Dad x
