I just wanted to add a few more old family photos of dad having fun as some of said you didn't have any photos with him. I particularly love the one where he's holding a huge crab!

We fondly remember the time you lived with us, we will always keep talking about you as you deserve to be remembered for your humour and kindness. Rest in peace

This is the only photo of Rowland that we've got, him and Cath at our wedding. Don't they look young! We all used to go on holiday together and that's what I remember. On holiday Rolz would snack on stuff 24/7 (without putting on any weight!) In Scotland one day he'd bought himself a family size pork pie and when he'd eaten half of it he said it tasted funny. We looked at it and the gelatine was all a vivid green with mould. But didn't make him ill! Another time we went to Teignmouth in a bargain priced flat. It reeked of a mixture of damp and fag smoke, your feet stuck to the carpets etc, but it was cheap so that was ok. Just before we went home Rolz found an inventory listing all the contents and warning about charges for breakages or stealing them. The light shades were like polythene tubes which had somehow gone greasy so that all the fluff and grot stuck to them, and Rolz wanted to steal one just to wind the owners up. I persuaded him it wasn't worth the aggro, but with hindsight I wish we had. Rest in peace mate.

I will always remember you playing the drums and having all manner of interesting percussion instruments that we could play with when we were little, including a whistle that sounded like a train when you blew it! You must have been the best percussionist the Shrewton Silver band ever had, I am sure. I don't think there can be a better picture of us than the pic of us crouching down deep in concentration when I was teeny and I couldn't not add a photo of us with the bond bug - I thought that was the best car ever! Rest in peace dad.

I remember coming home one day with Mum to find a note on the door saying ‘Beware of the rabbit' - when we went in there was a white bunny hopping around the house and Dad in the process of building a cage for it out of bits of wood and chicken wire. You never quite knew what was going to happen next with him!

Like a shadow in the moonlight Like the whisper of the seas Like the echoes of a melody Just beyond our reach In the shadow of our sorrow Past the whisper of goodbye Love shines through eternity A heartbeat from our eye
