  Andy, what can I say about you... I met you a few years before I met Sav and I quickly found out how blunt, straight to the point, dry humoured you were. I was asking you how to use a sat-nav that you had just given me and you said 'It's not hard just turn it on' I didn't know at that point that you would one day be my father in-law. Funny how things work out isn't it.. Savanna shares the same traits as you in regards to being straight to the point, upfront and can put her hand to absolutely anything. Jacob also shows traits of yours, he's a smart little lad. It's like I live with two Andy's. Jacob doesn't really understand what has happened but he says 'daddy, grandad Andy is still here but we just can't see him any more' Or as you called him 'lil J' We will all meet again one day but until that day comes, rest easy and stay close.

  don't know why God always takes the good ones first And man, I've tried to be strong and carry on, but damn, this hurts And I just wish that I could talk to you again somehow, someway Even if it's for a moment, so I can hear you say Don't cry for me, I'm alright I'm better than you know And this life can be a short ride So don't waste in on sorrow And just hold on to those moments And the memories we shared We're both headed for the same place anyway I just beat you there I know they say, "Just give it a little time, you'll be okay" That might be true, but it don't really help me today And we ain't supposed to question the man upstairs There's just so much I don't understand, it just don't seem fair Don't cry for me, I'm alright I'm better than you know And this life can be a short ride So don't waste it on sorrow And just hold on those moments And the memories we shared We're both headed for the same place anyway I just beat you there And as each day goes by, I get a little bit stronger But that don't stop me from wishing you were here a little bit longer Whoa, oh, oh So I'm gonna smile when I think of you Like I know you'd want me to And I know you're watching over me in everything I do And all those things I never got to say Well, I'll send 'em with this prayer Then look up, wipe my tears and raise my beer, mm And I'll see you there And I'll see you there Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

  I would dig a thousand holes to lay next to you I would dig a thousand more if I needed too I look around your grave for an escape route of old routine it doesn't seem ti be any other way cause I've started fallen apart I'm not savouring life I've forgotten how good it could feel to be alive Crazy as it sounds you won't feel as low as you feel right now at least that's what I've been told by everyone I whisper empty sounds in your ear and hope that you won't let go take the peices and build them skywards cause I've started falling apart I'm not savouring lives I've forgotten how good it could be to feel alive take the peices and build them skywards Dad I'm broken since the day you died my heart is broken please watch over me and send me a sign

  I am still unable to process the fact that you are no longer with us Andy and I am finding it difficult to say goodbye. We have known each other for over 30 years and share two amazing daughters. We had our ups and downs but we also had a lot of great times and laughter, especially with your (funny dance moves), The holidays we had together especially in Parga (which was your favourite place), with Tracey and Billy and the laughs we had when you used to put oil on your skin to try and get a better tan then Billy and put rocks under your sunbed to try and level it which never worked, you did get one up on Billy though because he never swam to the little island with the church on. Thank you for all the memories Andy, you were unique and the straightest person I knew but you had a big heart. Although we couldn't be with each other you remained in my life until you left me last week and I would like to think that I did everything I could to help you and be there for you. I'll never forget you Andy and I will share all our memories with our 3 grandchildren. I hope you are at peace now Until we meet again Love you always Sharon Xxxxx delete

  I knew you for a very long time Andy, and although you could appear as a quiet man,once people got to know the real Andy they could see how funny you were and also quite cutting at times, which was part of your charm and what everybody who knew you loved and laughed about. I hope you have found the eternal peace I believe you were searching for 🙏. Sleep tight my friend Paula

  My long lost brother, we split very early in life and knew nothing of the life you made for yourself, nor you of my life, apart from you were in the army serving your country. I remember little of our days as a kids. But that does not lesson the pain of your early death. I do not believe in god or an afterlife, but if there is one I hope that your happy. But know this, I will be here for your daughters should they ever need my advice or help, Savanna is a credit to you and we have chatted quite a bit snce your passing and I hope I can in some little way be a shoulder for her to lean in should she ever need it. So farwell, as we say at sea, fair winds and following sea where ever your destination may be, as you cross the bar in the words of Tennyson. In my thoughts, Roy
