Another Painful Time

Well George, it is almost Christmas again.  It really isn't the same without you being here, you absolutely loved Christmas and all it entailed.  We probably would have bought more 'lights', new tree baubles (preferably your special Disney ones) and many other things that you enjoyed about Christmas. It was 'your' time of the year that you so loved.  We went to the Light up a Life service at Keech and put the 'stars' on the tree.  Hope you saw all of them and Liam's one saying 'Merry Christmas Grandad'.  Ewan couldn't write one as he got upset. He misses you so much.  They have put Your Star on the tree in the dining room. It is not on the top but part way down facing the table so you can see us all and still be part of the occasion of Christmas Lunch. Ewan gets upset and misses you and Liam talks about you and said to Geraldine about getting something for your garden for Christmas.  They think and remember in their own way, as each of us do.  All of us think of you EVERY day and we all miss you so much and times such as this, Christmas, just makes it worse as we know how you loved it and we want you here with us.

You would be so proud of what they have achieved with the fundraising.  Their half marathon efforts raised approximately £1600 and they did it for you. 

We all love you and miss you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
