Dad overseeing the Turning
Dad and Mom at Futtock PartyOn the 1st of February my father left this life in order to prepare the way for my mother who left us 11 days later on the 12th of February. It was to have been their sixtieth wedding anniversary on the 3rd of February. My mother had alzheimers for many years and dad had dedicated his whole life to looking after her, eventually giving up his own before his time in order to prepare the way for her. There is no greater sacrifice that a man can make.
This project is here because of all my father taught me and I will be eternally grateful to him for that and I know that he was immensely proud of my achievement thus far. This project will be completed in his memory.
Love you Dad and Mom. Go well and look after one another wherever you are.
