It's 18:22hrs, Brisbane time & oddly enough, I'm listening to 'Harvest moon, Neil Young' a song you loved a long time ago. You were a loving uncle, softly spoken with a heart of gold. I have fond memories of you Uncle Milt. Sad that you're no longer here, but happy that you're no longer sick or in pain. Will miss you Uncle Milt xxx
