Sorry to read of his passing. May his memories last long in yours
Dear Ken Jr and Lynne-Maree, Your father was a valued resident of Mechanic St. He was friendly and he always had time for a chat. He knew my parents well and that connection filtered down to me. He made a difference. Thinking of you and your family at this time.
Missing you grandad. You did fight long and hard for the last 11 months. I will remember all the good memories. You kept us on our toes till the last moment. I will treasure our last conversation and our last hug. Now you can rest and be with grandma. Till we met again but till then you will be an extra star in the sky, watching over all your loved ones. Thank you for being there for me in some hard times. Love you always your oldest grand daughter Christina
