A celebration of Gavan's life......

This has to be the hardest post I have ever had to do........

 On the 2 November my Gavan passed away peacefully after suffering a stroke.....

It has been a very difficult year for him health wise.....

Diagnosed with Dementia, losing his sight to Macular degeneration as well as all his other problems.....

Gavan wasn't one for pomp and ceremony, he didn't want a funeral at all......

So I decided on a .....

Celebration of his Life day with only family.....

It was wonderful and I'm sure he would have been pleased with it.....

There was a plan.....

These are the things Gavan was known for within the family....

My Invitation.....

Gavan.... Dad.... Pop....

10th November 10.30am, our home.....

Menu.... 

Pop's pies.... hands on activity....

Pop's favourite...cheesecake (prepared earlier)

Entertainment....Pop's playlist.....

Beverage....Scotch....his favourite....

This is not a funeral, rather a celebration of his life just as he wanted....

so bring your stories and share a laugh, I'm sure a few tears (limited) is ok....

at his favourite place...

Yes, his family home....



















So many wonderful cards and flowers from friends.....
thank  you so much .....






Time to say goodbye.....
My love always.....
