.............send off.......I've never seen anything like that before, so wonderful and personal, i shall miss Tone my father in law very much he was Jamaican as my mother in law re-married and i have know him for 35years he was the kindest man ever, Robbie was devastated as he was Robs Granddad and he was the proudest man when Rob past his driving test. This is what Robbie wrote and read at the service.
GRANDDAD
Another link is broken
In our family chain
But as god calls us one by one
The chain will fix again
When the nights are starry
When the sky is blue
We will look to heaven
And blow kisses up to you,
You were like the sun Granddad
You brightened up our day
You were always there to help us in every single way,
You’ll be sadly missed by everyone
Your music will be too
You will live on in all of us,
Granddad we love you.
