  1. To Debra and family, I have been thinking of you all over the past week. I only met Michael once but he had such a big place in my heart. I will miss him lots. He wrote such lovely letters, he always wrote so lovingly about you Debra, his children and grandchildren. I know he will be missed but just shows how much he was loved. Rest easy Michael. Love Jo, Graham, William and Millie in the UK x
