  3. To my favourite father-in-law, a gentle man who loved every one of his family members & his “out-laws”.
    He had a wonderful sense of humour that he shared with a twinkle in his blue eyes.
    We reminisced & told jokes in our call on his last day & I will treasure our laughter together forever.
    Thanks for being such a strong leader & figurehead of this huge family.
    You will be missed by everyone, love Vikki xxx
