My dad Brian passed away at home suddenly on 24/03/08 due to an heartattack, aged 65.
Although born in Barne Barton he grew up in Honicknowle. After meeting and marrying my mum Beryl
they moved to Ernesettle where they have lived ever since.
Brian has 3 children Tracy, Paul & Glenn.
He also has 8 grandchildren.
Brian was the eldest of 11 children, 5 sisters & 6 brothers. Uncle & great-uncle to numerous neices
& nephews who all loved him very much.
Brian has spent most of his working life as a scrap metal merchant finishing his time with EMR
recycling where he was due to retire.
He was very well known in the local football scene having played for numerous teams. He loved to
watch his sons, brothers & nephews all playing for local teams.
My dad was a very loving husband, Dad, Grandad, brother,uncle & great-uncle.
He doted on my Mum, who was his life.
He loved all the grandchildren & loved spending time with them. His family was his life.
All the family are so devastated by his departure & miss him badly.
My dad was my security and I now feel so empty without him. If I had any worries he would always
tell me the truth. If I was upset he would always say to me "Tracy just smile" those words will
never leave me.
I love and miss you so much Dad. xxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Dad just had to update all your details on this site. Decided to change the song being played to the one that everyone who knew you would associate with you.
That was the hardest thing Ive had to do I am writing this whilst listening and I am blinded through tears.
Still missing you as always. Mum is doing really well. She can talk alot more about you now,she even laughs at some of the things you used to say. We can even now talk about your funeral and who was there that we had forgotten about. So even though we still miss you like crazy things are getting easier.
sleep tight Dad love you lots

Hi Dad just returned from holiday.
It was the hardest time ever. At first I did nothing but cry!
I kept looking for you all the time.
Mum looked so lost it was heartbreaking to see. I know she kept strong for me. I keep telling everyone I really enjoyed it but deep down I missed you so much. I tried to keep strong for Mum.
Terry looked so lost in the bar without you even Mum commented on it quite a few times.
I know you were up there keeping a look out for us all.
I love you so much Dad I still find it hard too accept.
I keep thinking this is all a dream and I will wake up from it all.
Terry says I have changed since youve been gone but how do you be the same after something like this hapens. Its just so unfair.
Keep watching over us all Dad I helps me too know you are still around.
love you XXXXX
Tracy, Terry, Sye & Kiera xxxxxxx

Hi Dad, another bad day today!!
Maybe coz its near the holiday.
I cant stop thinking just how unfair this all is, and why we are going through so much pain.
Mum is ok althiugh I still see her look into space probably wondering where you are, as we all are.
We all miss you so much, I cant believe its been 4 months.
Terry hasn't done no horses since even he looks lost when hes in the pub.
I know you are always with us but it's just not the same.
I wish you were here so we can see you.
We all love you Dad. I'll speak to you soon.
