I have just heard the sad devastating news. I'm so sorry. I wasn't around but I remember as a kid we used to visit you and Eileen and stay for dinner, loved Christmas coming over and you were so generous giving us drinks. You were always so kind to me and respectful and I will never ever forget that forever. As I grew up I was happy to see you as my Grandad. Sending love to you and hugs. I'm so sorry yet again. I feel the pain I really do. The wonderful memories we all have never leave us.

Well we're do I start.........You were a devoted brother and brother in law to Dad and Mum. Taking him to appointments looking after him nothing was too much trouble for you to help them. You were like the 4th emergency service for them. I hope we finished off the decorating at mum's to your high standard. I'm sure you were watching and saying that we had missed a bit !! I know you and Dad will have been watching and laughing when we cut the wallpaper too short !!! When they say they broke the mould when they made some one, that's certainly true of you. Rest in peace. Sean and Lorraine xx

Garry how do I start?
First meet you about 15 years ago took me a while to get used to your sense of humour but I got it in the end you were always there to help me if I had a problem or just to give me advice. I remember asking you for Vickys had in marige and you said yes as long as did not bring her back. Used to love Boxing Day tea as when everyone had gone home you would let me have a drop of your best single malt whisky.
Will never forget you best wishes Nigel.
