It has been one sad year without you, always in my heart and thoughts, I will never stop loving you. Every night when the stars shine bright and the big moon throws out its light, I would stop and stare and ask myself "What is up there?" Just for now my thoughts will keep, I know you're always near, even though I 'm far away, I wish that one day we will all be together and that's how we'll stay for ever and ever. Love your loving wife Shirley ****************** A very much loved Dad. We love and miss you every day. You will always be in our hearts. Love your loving daughters Tiffany, Margaret & Ann
