I’m so sad that Harper and Hudson won’t get to meet their great-Poppa but will be sure they know what a wonderful man he was. Grateful to be able to be a part of this day, even though not being able to be there in person. You’re back with Nanna now Poppa, love you always ♥️

My wonderful loving dad, over the years you were always there in the good times and the not so good times. You were very supportive in my sports nearly every Saturday being the uber driver with a Cortina load of Woolston rugby league boys and also being the teams first aid person. And in the brass band days you were always there in support. You were truly a great father firm but fair. Our family was so blessed that you were at the head of tribe, your leading by example has made our families what we are today. You've passed on your sense humour and quick wit which so evident in all of us. You are loved and will never be forgotten. RIP with mum.

A wonderful Father-in-law whom I called Dad ❤. You made me feel welcome from the first time I met you 7 years ago. You were such a gentleman, kind and loving. I'm so pleased I had the pleasure of knowing you and spending time with you. All your family have such wonderful memories to hold on to. Your cheeky character lives on in your own children and no doubt your Grand and Great Grand Children. RIP Dad. United now with your precious Anne ❤❤❤
