'Bob' was just about the nicest Grandfather a person could ever have! I remember he used to bring my brother and myself to the golf course with him as much as possible when we were growing up. He tried his best to teach us the love of golf but my brother was the only one that kept it up! We were his only grandkids and as he was a big kid at heart we had masses of fun. Myself and he were very close and when he had his first stroke I was absolutly devestated. Ten years later his body finally gave up and he passed away peacefully. He never got to meet his two greatgrandchildren. He would have loved them so much. They know all about him and always ask me to tell them stories of the fun and silly times we had together! Today is his 11th anniversary and I still miss him more than words can say. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of him.
Hope you're still hitting holes in one Grandpa, my favourate 'wee man'!
Love you and miss you so much!! Till we meet again!xxxxxxxx.



Also rembering his wife Elsie (Gracrane) (also on 'Gone too soon'), who passed away on Monday 24th March 2008, in her 99th year.

Missing you both more than words can say.x.

Missing you!

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day.
Unseen, unheard, but always near
Still loved, still missed and very dear.

Missing You!

Rembering you is easy
I do it every day.
But there is an ache
Within my heart
That will never go away!

Love you Gramps.x.

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am the star that shines at night,
I am your silent guiding light.

I am the wind blowing thru the trees
I am the foam upon the seas.

On winged flight I sail on by
I see below as I fly on high.

I am always standing by your door,
So look for me and cry no more.

Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there, I did not die!

Missing you!

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
May the rain fall softly upon your fields.
Until we meet again may God hold you in the hollow of his hand.

And may the blessing of God Almighty
The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit
Be upon you and remain with you ALWAYS.

Wish I could hear your voice just one more time Gramps.
Love forever. xxxxxxxxx.
