To my darling wife, Chriss, who passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family on Easter Monday, 2025.

Chriss, would you be so kind as to wait by the leafy path,

I won’t be long.

We always liked the leafy path, with it’s dappled sunlight and small bright flowers.

It was a joy to walk with you, your closeness, the warmth of your easy nature and your very presence was a balm to my soul.

I will take your lovely hands to continue our harmonious journey together,

To eternity,

In love forever,

My one love,

Until the end of time.
