Messages Of Condolence

Bless my dad he's now at peace. No suffering anymore the horrible illness dementia took my real dad years ago.
We watched him change from a man, a father, a husband, he became a shell of the man we all knew. He didn't always know who we were and it was very very sad. Dementia is a horrible illness no one would wish it on their family members it's cruel. My dad's my dad again he's with my mum, he's out of pain. Love you always dad.

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

No words could do you any justice.
Thank you for all you ever did for me.
Love Heather & Stanley and your great grandchildren Arlo & Elodie XxXx
