Passed away suddenly at Jersey’s General Hospital on Sunday, 2 July, 2017, aged 77 years. Adored husband of Sue. To My Gary, Now you have gone and I remain to walk the road alone, I’ll live in memories, sweetheart, of happy days we’ve known, Our time in France at the Chateau and talking by the pool, And sitting in the church in Rennes where I became a greater part of you. You’ve given me such happiness, I’ve had laughter, love and joyAnd memory is one gift from God, That death cannot destroy. Now you have gone and I’m left alone, There’s one thing I’ll ask you to do, Walk slowly down that long road, For soon I’ll follow you, I’ll want to know each step you take, So I can walk the same, For very soon. . . down that golden road, You’ll hear me call your name. Loving you forever, until we meet again. Your broken-hearted wife Sue xxxx
