You were taken from us so suddenly. That will never make sense to me. I know in my heart that your
with Mum and Dad now and they will take care of you forever.
I sometimes wish I could come too but I suppose it's not my time yet. It will be a joy to
meet again and I'm no longer afraid of dying for I know you'll be waiting for me.
My heart aches every time I think of you...just one more of those loving hugs would have been
wonderful...or even the chance to say goodbye. I love you more than words can say and will miss you
till my dying day and then we'll be together again...forever, my darling brother.

We went there last weekend and lots of memories came rushing back. Won't tell the funniest one 'cos you'd be mad with me but you'd have to admit that Nora and I had every reason to laugh like we did. Love you, Honey and miss you more every day. You and boats never did mix well did they? All I can think of is every time Uncle Archie took you on one it would sink but you hardly ever got wet! All the times it happened you would be bustin a rib laughing at poor Archie as he got drookit...so much for all his years in the Navy huh? Even in Springburn Park you nearly drowned him!!!!
Wish you were here, Love and kisses xxxx
Robert's memorial
I tend not to visit this site very often as I feel I have not a lot to add but maybe I was wrong. I added some photos today. Among these are copies of eulogies read at the funeral. Robert had no religious faith and to be honest I think his funeral was the most personal tribute to anyone we could have managed. What was said was in celebration of his life which continues in all of our hearts...
anniversary
Yesterday it was a whole year since we lost you. I'm trying to find a reason and I think I have found just a hint of one. Your Mammy had seen a lot more than we had in the previous couple of years and somehow managed to keep things quiet. How she did it I don't know but maybe we just weren't paying enough attention. I'm sorry if that was the case and I let you both down. Nora didn't want you going on like you had been and she certainly didn't want you to lose anymore dignity than you already had. She knew your quality of life was zilch anymore.
You had been used to much better and had had such love and support from her...nobody else could take her place.
Be with the one who loved you most forever now but God knows there is not a day that goes past when I wish I was with you all. It seems that there's nothing here that I need as much as you and Mammy. xxxxx

First birthday without you
55 years ago today there must have been a star in the sky and it came to us. A very very special baby who changed many lives and was to touch so many people.
My brother won a Special Olympics Medal for swimming at the age of 40...beat that!
Remembering you cheating at pool...from Jamie!
Still rubbing my sore hiney from you shoving me over at musical chairs...from Rick!
Happy Birthday wherever you are and remember to blow the candles right off that cake!
Can't stop missing you.
