A doting Husband of the late Marian Reed (now reunited) and Dad to Lynn and Steven Father in law to Robert and Linda brother of Frank brother-in-Law to Val and John and an amazing Grandad to myself Steven , Peter , Craig , Elizabeth , Bobby , Abigail , John and David.
My Grandad died today after a having a stroke 6 years ago and having many health problems since then and finally his body just gave up the fight after so many health related problems been thrown at him .

MY TRIBUTE TO A TRUE GENTLEMAN.

My Grandad was an hard working , loving and truely inspirational Man who had been fit throughout all his life , having never been in hospital until his stroke 6 years ago. All he ever wanted in life was to love and care for his Family , Friends and all who were close to him .
I suppose you could say he lost his true spark 10 years ago after the death of my Nan his dear wife Marian but was still physically healthly until he had his unexpected stroke in 2001. After this he lost his speech and the use of his right side which was devastating . After this he was in hospital for quite sometime then went into rehab whilst my Dad , his son had an extention built which was to be like a granny flat for my Grandad to live in with him and my step Mum Linda. My Dad and Linda were then his full time carers until last year when the choice was made for him to go into Acorn Lodge Nursing Home due to more health related problems and him needing round the clock care.
Over the past 6 years ive watched my Grandad suffer so much and ask how and why? as he been put through this? yet fight so hard for life. This last week hes got worse and worse and I told him the other day whilst chatting with him God only throws at people what they can handle , which means hes a true brave man but I dont think he cared anymore .
Yesterday I asked my Nan on her website could she ask God to please make my Grandad better or for her to come and get him as I couldnt watch my Grandads pain anymore , she was listening and after been by his bedside all night she came for him today at 1.15pm opened her arms and off he went .
They are now together again pain free and very much in Love I thank my Nan but at the same time im going to miss my Grandad so so much , This is to you Grandad I love you Always and I know you and Nan will watch over me infact all of us until we meet again Good Night Godbless R.I.P
