RIP 💐 dear Des. I remember that day we bonded, you let me do your nails. Paul & you would play instruments together after a beer or two. I will remember you as a man of few words your facials said it all. A deep thinker I thought. May memories of you cover your beloved family & keep them close & safe during this very sad time of your passing. As we left the chapel today I saw your grandaughter blow you a kiss & wave goodbye to you. You are truly loved Des. Susan & Ngaire & family gave us all your life in pictures & stories. Such a loving tribute. Rest now Des All our ĺove Paul & Deb ❤️‍🩹
