Jan - We think Bill could well be saying these lines: When I come to the end of the road and the sun has set on me, I want no tears in a gloom filled room, why cry for a soul set free? Best love and kind thoughts, Heather and Bill Somerville

Our thoughts are with Jan and family at this sad time. Bill was a great workmate and friend on his many building sites.

Wombat, while we stand at your grave and weep, And you certainly are there but do not now sleep. You are now in the wind that comes and goes, You are the diamond sparkles that appear when it snows. Our memories of you will continue on for many many years, The fun times we all had and the enjoyable beers. Time continues on and unfortunately this won't be the last, There are so many good souls we are attached to, that are now in the past. Bill, we will remember you forever and be with you one day, And our family and friends will then be thinking in this exact same way.  You will be in our hearts forever. Love Keith and Rosemary

Deepest sympathy to the Gibb family. Mr.Gibb was a lovely man. I knew him as a customer at E.Hayes where I work. He was always pleasant and genuinely liked by the staff in the hardware department. Regards Yvonne Watt.
