Dearest Dad, your love encircled and protected us. We know that you will always be with us in our lives, our children’s lives and beyond. You were a true philosopher and blessed with good humour and a positive sense of calm.You loved your family and friends with steadfastness, honour and integrity. We will miss you but even now we sense you are with us. With love to everyone who knew Dad.
