Dad was and still is the most remarkable man anyone could ever know.
He joined the Royal Navy aged 19 on the 7th January 1943 and just over a year after joining, found
himself on one of the many Landing Barges transporting troops bound for Dunkirk - D-Day - where he
would witness the horrors and carnage of one the bloodiest battles in history.
Despite it all,Dad very seldom spoke of the events of WW2 and when, on the rare occasion, he did,
his eyes would well up as he recalled memories of the sights he saw and the friends he lost - he
could NEVER bear to listen to the Navy Hymn 'For Those in Peril of The Sea',when asked "Why?" he
would simply reply "Memories".
He would delight in telling us of his 'antics' though during his time in the Navy and the the things
he would 'Get up to' with his brothers,particularly Ted and Charlie, which never failed to have us
in fits of laughter!
Dad had a real 'Slapstick' sense of humour and would often mimic the likes of Tommy Cooper and
Norman Wisdom.A proper prankster too, who loved to wind up or get everyone going!
As a Father,I couldn't have asked for better. He was THE most loving,devoted and giving Dad, there
is NOTHING he wouldn't do for us and when his Grandchildren and Great Grandkids, who affectionately
referred to him as 'Gramps', came along those wonderful attributes continued.
There is SO much I could say about Dad but do do that I would need to write a book!
Losing our dearly loved Dad and Gramps has broken our hearts and those of many others.Without Dad, a
HUGE void now remains in our lives,one that NO ONE else could possibly fill, but know that, in
spirit, he is still with us.A soul as beautiful and magnificent as his will ALWAYS live on.
"Until the day we meet again Dad,You will forever be in our hearts and thoughts with devoted love
ALWAYS"
Will ALWAYS be missed so desperately and loved so deeply.

~♥~ Our Guardian Angels will speak to us
in many different ways ~♥~
~♥~ They'll whisper joy from a bird's song
or wind through a majestic pine ~♥~
~♥~ Or laugh amid the rolling clouds
in a joyous thunder clap ~♥~
~♥~ Or whisper love through a turtle dove
or from a puppy's joyous yap ~♥~
~♥~ So listen closely to every sound
that might come your way ~♥~
~♥~ It could be your angel saying,
"Have a Wonderful Day." ~♥~

Heaven has an Angel
They smile at us with love
Healing thoughts they send to us
When they know we need a hug
**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**
Gentle hands that guide us
They lead us all the way
Making sure we dont get lost
Or get led astray
**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**
Theyre never far behind us
Were always in their sight
Fluffing up our pillows
Before we sleep at night
**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**
Our Angels always with us
Only a thought away
For they realy try so hard
To make tomorrow a brighter day
**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**

Our Memories
♥***♥***♥***♥***♥
Memories last forever
Because they belong to you
When we are unhappy
They lead us back to you
Theyre full of smiles & laughter
Tears of joy & pain
Memories so beautiful
My life is not the same
When i say my prayers tonight
Ill get down on my knees
Please Lord is it possible
To re-live all my memories

Tributes For This Week
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR MON
Our thoughts are ever with you
Though you have passed away.
And those who loved you dearly
Are thinking of you today.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR TUES
Everyday in some small way
Memories of you come our way.
Though absent, you are always near
Still missed, loved and always dear.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR WED
Your presence we miss,
Your memory we treasure,
Loving you always,
Forgetting you never.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR THUR
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye,
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God can tell us why.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR FRI
If we could have a lifetime wish
and one dream that could come true
We would pray to God with all our
hearts just to see and speak to you
A thousand words won’t bring you back
We know because we’ve tried
and neither will a million tears
We know because we’ve cried
You’ve left behind our broken hearts
and precious memories too
But we’ve never wanted memories
We only wanted you
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR SAT
God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you,
and whispered "Come to Me".
With tearful eyes we watched you,
we watched you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly,
we could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands now rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
FOR SUN
Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
To sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We are all meant to learn some things,
But never meant to stay.
Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know,
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
But when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the Lord.
♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥AXC♥
A Treasured Gift
~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~ *~♥x♥~
One gift, above all others,
God gives to us to treasure--
One that knows no time, no place;
One that gold can't measure—
~♥x♥~
The precious, poignant, tender gift
of Memory--for it keeps
Our dear ones ever in our hearts,
Though they have gone to sleep.
~♥x♥~
It brings back long remembered things--
A song, a word, a smile--
And the world's a better place because
We had them for a while!
~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~* ~♥x♥~ *~♥x♥~
