I will splice the mainbrace in your memory
Miss you Dad and remembering you particularly tomorrow 28th April when you joined our lovely mum in 2014. You wouldn't believe what's happened in the world this year but do your best to guide folk intelligently and kindly.
We are remembering you today and missing your kindness, encouragement, inspiration, stories and laughter. Marking five years with a tribute candle to our lovely Dad and Daddad to Alex 'the wee fella' who is now very 'tall Alex' and doing well with his rugby and schoolwork. Also in memory of our mum Wilma who you loved so much.
Dear Daddad, Thinking of you on your third anniversary. Remembering our holiday to Turkey and having great fun with you and how funny you were. Thanks for teaching me and my pals poker. Miss you. Alex xxx
Third Anniversary Dad and remembering and missing you so very much. We are together and thinking of good times and your funny stories. Thank you and mum for being our guiding lights. We were so lucky. Keep sailing on... xxx
Dear Daddad, Thinking of you today on your second anniversary and missing you. Remember you teaching us to play cards, taking me go karting, making our holiday in Turkey special and fun and making me laugh.
Happy Birthday Dad, Think of you every day and miss your storytelling, honourable and gentlemanly ways and desire and effort to make life special. Cannot believe it's been two years since you joined mum in the hereafter. Been a funny old year so far with lots of celebs and Evelyn leaving us. Wee Alex doing very well at school and with his sport. Hopefully, somehow you can see or feel that and can be proud of him. Me and Al got second in Grand National with The Last Samurai. We should probably learn how to play Poker. Karenxx

One year on Dad and still see you everywhere. Whenever and wherever there are ships, boats, lighthouses, horses, cards, kindness and laughter. xxx
Can't believe it's nearly a year dad and we are missing you so very much. You'd been 4 days in Marie Curie this time last year and we thought doing ok. You were enjoying company of so many friends and family and hoping and praying for a wee miracle. karenxxx
Can't make the Christmas Carol Service Dad but sent a bauble in your name. Sending this donation to help other dads and families. Happy Christmas xxx
Thanks so much to John Angus and the gang who held a "Crackers" tournament at the Maybury in Edinburgh on Saturday night in honour of Dad. As John said, I'm sure you were there dad chuckling to yourself and enjoying the banter. We miss you so much. xxx
