Dad sadly passed away peacefully on 12 March 2009 surrounded by his loving family after suffering for so long with COPD even though he never smoked. He was a lovely man, a wonderful Husband, Dad, Grandad, Step-Dad and Papa too and will be so sadly missed by so many. Our loss is so raw but we hope that Dad's Fund will be a good way of remembering him and also helping the charity. Please add your messages and thoughts and join us in remembering him for the very happy, loving and special man that he was. We all love him dearly and words can't describe how much we miss him and always will. All donations from the funeral will be added to this fund. ******************** God saw you getting tired, When a cure was not to be. So He wrapped his arms around you, and whispered, "come to me." You didn't deserve what you went through, So He gave you rest. God's garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best. And when we saw you sleeping, So peaceful and free from pain We could not wish you back To suffer that again.
