  5. Grandad, we are sad that you are no longer here but we are comforted to know that you are reunited with Nan. We will never forget our family dinners, Saturday morning garage sale runs, weekend drives and family gatherings. You were always up for an outing and would chew our ear off with stories from the past. What a great life you had and what a great life we have had, because of you and Nan. We will always remember the wonderful memories.
    Love Trine, Scott, Jayda and Aleisha. XOXO
