Don Astill. Farther in law to Tracey.
Dad i have known you for 35yrs through out these years we have laughed smiled and even cried together. You have been a great Grand-pops for Bruce. Thank you for all the memories. You were taken from our arms but not from our hearts. Now 'the team' will be back together, and i hope your new life with mam will be the best you have ever had.
Hugs and kisses to you and mam. Tracey xxx xxx
