Just dropping by to say I'm thinking of you Nanny and Grampy xx

One week on from the funeral already. We were talking about last week while on our way to collect something from someone who lived in South Marston this evening. On the way home we had to stop to drop a parcel off. Of all the parcel shops with a working printer, the only one that showed up was Budgens - in Highworth - directly opposite the bowls club. I'm taking it as a sign! :)

We hope we were able to make you proud today. I will miss visiting you and helping you in the garden creative your magic xox

Missing you so much dad. Love you lots, Linda xxx All the photos just bring back such happy memories and are a great comfort, as are the lovely messages we've received from everyone. He really was 'a gentleman'. x

Thank you Grampy for always being there for tales of your life, tours of your lovely garden and a good cup of tea. Will miss you always. - Jack

I remember all the Christmas we all use to spend together... lots of fun . My Dad , my Grandad & uncle Gerald all playing cards ... Fond memories .. RIP xx Sandy

I had the absolute pleasure of playing with Gerald at the Highworth Bowls Club. He was a true gentleman, kind hearted and always smiling. He reminded me of my grandfather when I was (much!) younger, he will be sorely missed, our thoughts are with his family - Heather and Kieron Pollock

Was thinking about dinners for the week and thought what better meal to do to pay tribute to you than a Stew. Stew also being one of the few meals you didn't pile Ketchup or some sort of sauce on top of! Haha :)

Things don’t feel real just yet Grampy, but I am spending each day saying “what would Gerald do” - of course it is make a cup of tea and get things done. I wish I could put into words how much we are all going to miss you but I know that you will never be far away. I love you very much and hope you have found nanny and are enjoying peaceful gardening together (aka you making mess around the flowers and nanny bringing the bucket to tidy it up) and falling asleep on the sofa together xoxoxoxox

We hope that you find this tribute to Gerald a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
