My best friend, words can’t describe how much I miss you. It’s not the same without you being here, on the end of the phone and to call upon. I hope you are dancing in heaven with Nana and I look forward to the day we see each other again. Thank you for being the best ever! Sealed with love x
Sorry Baldy I'm not one for speeches But thanks for 40 years of wisdom and support. I will miss our chats about the best motorcycles in the world Aka the Harley clunkers And your piloting missions over the years. Take care of Lizzy up there Old m8
