To my dearest Mammy, forever in our hearts, love you always. ‘If I should die before the rest of you, Break not a flower nor inscribe a stone. Nor, when I am gone, speak in a Sunday voice, But be the usual selves that I have known. And weep if you must, parting is hell, Life goes on, so sing as well’.

Your Beez, Matthew, Lydia, Asher, Eden and your great-grandchildren xxxxx.

(1921-2016) An ode to you. You saw so many changes in your life, Most you didn’t like, Your family were the most important thing, Especially your wife. Your inventions – a class of their own, Never made the Dragons Den, Nor ever made you famous, You were our family rock until the end. To us, the very best. Our very own legend.

Love always Tracey, Luke and Ross.
