May heart goes out to you Natalie. You and Sasha and Zak and families, It was a beautiful service. I know he will be sorely missed. I am saddened by the thought that he won't see his beloved grandchildren grown. He welcome my daughter, Samantha, into your family and treated her as a daughter, she lived him. I am eternally grateful for that.he gave Christina a job when she needed one and taught her how to drive excavators and dozers too !! He was a good whom I liked very much.
Sadly missed. But with great memories to hold close to your hearts!
