You fought the cancer with everything you had for 2 years, still managing a smile, laugh and making us laugh despite the pain you were in. Wednesday 23rd December our hearts broke and a part of me was taken. Dad you are/were the most loving, strongest, kindest, inspiring, amazing man ❤ I'm so proud and lucky to call you my Dad. If I would of known that hug was going to be the last I would of held you for so much longer. I miss you so much I can't even comprehend or put into words, I would give anything just to be able to have another hour with you but even that wouldn't be long enough. I feel like part of me has been taken and I honestly don't know what I'm going to do without you ... I love you Dad with all my heart and soul ❤❤

Thank you for everything Dad... It was a privilege and honour to have had you my life, even on bad days, seeing you with your arms open, with your joyful smile, is all it took to make my bad day go away. I don't know how I will cope without you, but I will try, for you. Love you Dad, with all my heart, Mikey xxxx

Stuart, you were undoubtedly the kindest man I have ever known. Understanding and caring, inspiring and supportive, talented yet so very humble. Being around always felt like a breath of fresh air. Thank you for always looking out for my mum and me in our times of need. I will miss you mate... I really will. You’ve been cruelly taken from us all abruptly far too soon. I’ll always treasure the time we shared, the chats, the laughs and especially that little blues guitar jam we had. I know you’re somewhere up there doing what you do best. Playing music and making others smile. Goodbye mate, God bless. Will x
