Robert represents for Patrick and me quiet strength and wisdom. Her mischievous eye and her accent not always easy to understand (for me the little French girl that I am). A real surrogate dad and a look full of tenderness. We miss you and we will miss you. Love love love.

Robert a été et restera un pilier dans ma vie. Il m'a accueilli dans sa famille alors que je n'avais que 10 ans. Son affection et sa générosité étaient immenses. il est devenu au fil des années un père spirituel, me transmettant les valeurs qui l'incarnaient avec simplicité et respect. Robert restera pour moi un modèle à suivre. Nous n'oublierons jamais tous ces moments passés ensemble, à rire, à célébrer notre amitié, à discuter, débattre et exprimer nos points de vue avec bienveillance. Merci d'avoir été ce père pour moi, tu me manques déjà. In loving memory xxxx

Thoughts
As We Look Back
As we look back over time
We find ourselves wondering …..
Did we remember to thank you enough
For all you have done for us?
For all the times you were by our sides
To help and support us …..
To celebrate our successes
To understand our problems
And accept our defeats?
Or for teaching us by your example,
The value of hard work, good judgment,
Courage and integrity?
We wonder if we ever thanked you
For the sacrifices you made.
To let us have the very best?
And for the simple things
Like laughter, smiles and times we shared?
If we have forgotten to show our
Gratitude enough for all the things you did,
We’re thanking you now.
And we are hoping you knew all along,
How much you meant to us.

The love we have for Grandfather
Will never fade away.
We’ll think of him, our special friend
Throughout each passing day.
We’ll walk into the room
And see his empty chair;
Although we know he’s resting,
We’ll feel his presence there.
The memories of his laughter,
His warm and loving smile,
His eyes so full of happiness,
His heart that of a child.
Memories are forever
Be they laughter or of tears,
Memories we will treasure
Through all the forthcoming years.

Candles
This candle is lit to remember my wonderful grandad who will forever be in our hearts. Being the only male figure in most of my life he has demonstrated what a male role model should be (and yes he set the bar very high) He has taught me to love, be patience and to always read the instructions!

The last few weeks have been filled with sadness and tears at your passing. A loving father, grandfather and role model. To me he was a man of few words, not one to gossip or idle chat but full of intelligence, compassion and humility. I admire the KIND of father he was to us, he loved us all very much. He instilled in us the core values that defined who HE was. A man who kept promises and honoured commitment. He was a man of integrity, honest, respectful, hardworking, he engendered strong morals and a way of behaving that gently guided you. Never coarse, vulgar or rude a true gentleman in every sense.
Strong and dependable, you could go to him with a problem or dilemma and he would willingly give advice without the fuss or drama. He never suggested the ‘easy’ way, only the ‘right way’ to deal with a problem.
To my eldest children he was their positive male role model for many years and gave my son, in particular, opportunities that he may not have had. Building cardboard tanks in the garden but obviously with precision and accuracy, nautical museums, steam fairs and other engineering delights. For my daughter
a man in her life who was always dependable and although often serious was kind and caring and how a man should be. For that kindness and compassion I thank you dad. For my youngest daughter who sadly did not get much time to be with grandad and who does not yet understand the situation Grandad is apparently in Heaven, washing up, being best friends with uncle Rick and reading the paper.
I know that dad brought far more joy to all of us than any sadness and as time goes by he will not be forgotten but remembered by us all with immense love.
