Dear Uncle O. Its very hard to accept you're no longer here and even though we had not seen each other for a long time, I have always known where you are and that I could call on you if needed. I have hundreds of amazing memories - we spent so much time together when I was growing up and then later when I used to babysit my cousins for you! I loved watching you on stage and then waiting for you to come out the King's Hall dressing room before going into the bar, on a high and with some eye make up not quite removed. I loved being part of the RNLI shows you helped put on all those years ago seeing your joy and excitement when we actually got our parts right! You helped me to learn to drive and was so patient - even when holding onto the dashboard for life! Scott and I cherish the time we spent with you in Herne Bay, sharing take-aways and lots of laughs and then much later, as a family, we holidayed at your house in Fakenham a couple of times when you went away which made for a lovely break for us. Its been a really hard 18 months or so, having lost Gav and then Den just last year and now you. I feel grateful for being part of your family and your life. Lots of love xxx
