    Evening All

    I just wanted to let you all know that Grandad died this morning. He had his Family around him and he went peacefully and quickly...

    We are, of course, devastated but doing okay at the moment....We have moments of tears and heartache and other moments of laughter as we remember him and the times we've had with him...

    I will still try to be here as much as I can, I need to focus on the future while still making time for my Family and to remember my very special Grandad....I know he will be with me always, he always has been and I know he will stay with all of us....

    Anyway...Thank you to you all for your lovely words of support....It means so much to me that we have all created this wonderful Thread full of support and love and encouragement...

    I will Update over the next couple of days....*Hugs* to you all xXx

    **hugs** to you Helen.

    I also lost my Uncle on Saturday. I was very sad at first but he was very poorly and I have been consoling myself with the fact that he is now no longer in pain.

    Remember all the good times with your grandad and know that he will never be far from you. Do your best to make him proud as often as possible. Grieve for him but don't let your grief take over your life.

    I'm here if you need anything xx
