Dad always loved working in his yard outside and spending time sitting in the sunshine. He loved his grandchildren and always had coffee on in anyone came by for a visit. He was a quiet, courteous, gentle man with a good sense of humour. These traits stayed with him all through his battle with Parkinson’s disease.
