Neil, today we should have been celebrating our Golden Wedding Anniversary but you were sadly taken from me. I have so very many happy memories of our wedding day & the many blissful years that followed so today will be spent in quiet contemplation of the joy you brought into my life. You may not physically be with me anymore but spiritually you most definitely are. I see your many traits, mannerisms, humour & looks within your children & grandchildren almost every day. Your recent birthday, just 2 days ago, was again cause for a full family gathering & as ever we raised a glass in your memory. And while Bonnie has never met you, she sang a rousing Happy Birthday to Granddad who she recognises from the many photos of you around our home. Rest assured Neil , you will never be forgotten & we all love and miss you still 🥰 Jan xxxx
Well Dad, we finally did it! Alex and I got married after 14 years of being togther, it was a wonderful day spent with our great family and friends. We were all so gutted that you never got to see it happen, but, we did however include you as much as we could, from all of the speeches to your memorial bench, you are always in our thoughts and remembered with so much love. I know you were looking down on us smiling, Dad, proud as punch. Love you always Jono, Alex, Leo & Bonnie xxxx
Three years since you left us Neil & fittingly, just arrived in the post, is a certificate thanking us for raising over £7,500 for The Brain Tumour Charity in your memory. This amazing amount of money was donated by your family , friends & colleagues all wishing to pay their tributes to you. Absolutely brilliant for someone who was just an ordinary family guy. But as we all know Neil, you were never, ever ordinary in any aspect of your life! We all love & miss you so very much & as always will be getting together as your family to raise a glass to you. Sleep tight Neil. ❤️🩹Jan xxxxx
