He will be greatly missed by all his close friends in Gander.
Dad enjoyed spending time with Phyllis and their fur baby, Cuddles. He liked to be out in garden, and
out in his shed building model boats. He loved friends to drop by his house in Gander to have a yarn and a good laugh – His sense of humour was second to none. Dad’s mind was sharp and he could tell a story like no other. His favourite time of the day was hearing from his siblings and sharing funny and joyous events.
Dad- Rest in Peace and until we meet again, you will be forever in our hearts!
