Poppa Max, I am so sorry I cannot be there to say goodbye, I wish I could hug you one last time and get one of those slobbery kisses. I will never forget your sense of humour or your love of pranks. The image of you sitting in your shed, your chair - watching Bayly Road go by will never be forgotten. I am your first Grandchild and you are my only Grandfather. Sending Love from London, With all my Love and Heart. Emma xxx
