LIFES LESSONS
YOU MAY HAVE THOUGHT WE DIDN’T SEE,
OR THAT WE HADN’T HEARD.
LIFE LESSONS THAT YOU TAUGHT TO US,
BUT WE GOT EVERY WORD.
PERHAPS YOU THOUGHT WE MISSED IT ALL,
AND THAT WE’D GROW APART.
BUT DAD, WE PICKED UP EVERYTHING,
ITS WRITTEN ON OUR HEART.
WITHOUT YOU, DAD, WE WOULDN’T BE
THE PEOPLE WE ARE TODAY;
YOU BUILT A STRONG FOUNDATION
NO ONE CAN TAKE AWAY.
WE’VE GROWN UP WITH YOUR VALUES,
AND WE’RE VERY GLAD WE DID;
SO HERES TO YOU, DEAR FATHER,
FROM YOUR FOREVER GRATEFUL KIDS
“THERE ARE NO GOODBYES FOR US. WHEREVER YOU ARE YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN OUR HEARTS”

Alec was a charismatic, gentle, thoughtful, intelligent and compassionate human being. He was a joy to look after-I wish I’d spent more time just listening to him.
Despite his health challenges, he took it all in his stride, never complaining, always positive.
He has left an amazing legacy in his family. His spirit will live on.
