Richard (my big Bro)
Forever in my heart you'll stay
Loved and remembered EVERY day
Memories of you will never die
Nor will they fade as time goes by
From:
your (not so little) Sister Kay xoxoxo

My Dad. Not my biological Dad but my step dad made so much more special because he chose to be a Dad to me. Dad has been such a huge part of my life. I've lived with him and worked with him. He has been the only man never to have let me down. Always willing to move me!! Always supporting, never judging and always ready to 'extract the water'. I miss our banter. I will miss him forever. Sweet dreams Dad. I love you xxx
