To Keith Joy and Jill. Keith and Joy we have known you both for over 60 years. Jill not so long, but our love and thoughts are with you all at this sad time. We remember as a family the wonderful weekend we shared with you where Paul showed our children how to ride a bike. God Bless.

Still can’t believe you’re gone mate. When Alan told me in the shop, after asking where you were, I couldn’t believe it. Still can’t. Rest In Peace mate. You were such a top bloke. I’ll miss our chats at Autobarn. 😞
