To all those who attended the funeral and especially to Michael's colleagues for providing a guard of honour.
thank you also to the representatives from the Allotment Association.
Grateful thanks for the donations to the Margaret Green Foundation, which are still being received c/o Grassby Funeral Service.

Lots of love ~ Val & Dave, Heather & Martin and Pete.
Auntie to Julie and children, Debbie, Claire & Matthew & boys, Sarah and David & Kerry.
Always in our thoughts.

DAVID WILLIAMS
        
Marc, Nita and Sue would like to express their gratitude to the many people who offered their sympathy and gave their support by both word and letter, and to all those who attended the cremation service.

We would also like to thank Sam and Mel Wilding at Rose Funeral Service for their kindness and understanding, and the Reverend Dennis Ackroyd for his moving and fitting service.

We give special thanks to all those who donated so generously towards Dave's bed fund. We have been able to give £1,500 to the Poole Hospital Wish List, which is more than enough to buy one of the specialist beds which gave Dave so much relief and comfort during his stay in hospital. We feel that to provide another such bed for others to use is a fitting memorial for him.

Our thanks to everyone.

BEDFORD & REEVE
