i never have and i never will meet a man like you again, from your stories of years gone by to the jokes we heard on repeat for years and years, although we knew the punchline every single time your infectious personality shone through everyone you met and we couldn’t help but laugh just like the first time we had heard them.
“everybody loves somebody sometimes, what chance have i got” - i just hope your looking down to see exactly how loved you were and still are by everyone who’s lives you touched.
it will take a while for me to stop tricking myself into hearing your slippers shuffling but i’ll get there, we all will.
you and nanna have a piece of me up there with you, hold onto them and i’ll come to collect it from yous when we meet again.
all my love grandad, forever and always.
