Pops,
If I’m honest I never imagined the day would come for us all to say goodbye. I always knew death was real but honestly I never knew this would happen to me. Now I know what it truly feels like to lose someone you love. You were an incredible man and I’m so lucky to have had you by my side for 22 years. The past few years you didn’t deserve anything you were put through. I hope granny Mary is up there with a pint in hand for you 💔 rest in paradise my beautiful granda. You will be sorely missed by so many people. You brought cheer and happiness to so many peoples lives and I promise to look after my nanny for you. Fly high pops but stay close as we all need you. It’s not a goodbye it’s a see you soon 🌟 until we meet again. I love you bai much granda xxxx
I thank god every day not only did I get to have you my great granda in my life for almost 27 years but also both your little tortures you’re great great granddaughters Zara and Aria getting to have you in their life not many people can say that. I feel so lucky to have known and loved pops. “A grandad holds a grandchild’s hand for a while and their heart for a lifetime” we love you so much from Shawnee Dylan and the 2 crazies Zara and Aria I hope you stay close to us and watch over everyone granda eve
