Death is nothing at all I have only slipped away into the next room I am I, and you are you. Whatever we were to each other That we still are. Call me by my old familiar name Speak to me in the easy way which you always used Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes We enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me, Let my name be ever the household word that It always was. Let it be spoken without effort, Without the trace of a shadow on it. Life means all that it ever meant It is the same as it ever was There is absolutely unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am Out of sight? I am but waiting for you For an interval Somewhere very near Just around the corner . All is well

I only met my great grandad twice and everytime I met him he had a special smile for me. I'm so glad I met him. My mum will always tell me about him. love great grandson coreylee xxxxxx.

Grandad was the best man I have ever known. He took me and my brother in when my mum could not cope, when he did not have to. He was a very lively, happy and friendly man and was very respected by all. I will always love my grandadxxx Chelsea granddaughter
