We're Off

We are heading off for a few days at St Helens. We were planning on a week, but my Pop passed away this morning so we will be back for his funeral, depending on when that is - maybe Thursday or Friday.

I'm happy for Pop that he is no longer suffering, but sad for Nan and will miss him a lot. Harri had a big cry after he found out and asked how did he get to Heavenly Father. Jalen thought it was quite funny and we explained his body is still at the home with Nan but his spirit is with Heavenly Father and he seemed to get that.

He is our hero and we loved him so much. We will miss you Pop, but know we will see you again.

    It is all his family who have now to carry on that wonderful legacy he has left for them...

  5. Particularly fitting around Australia Day. Although I never met your pop, I'm very grateful for what he did for our country, and for the example he has been to your wonderful family. :)
