You will be surely missed... I imagine you are happier now that you have joined Mother Guscott and your five siblings... first born Christel Watson, Charlie Guscott, George Guscott, Norman Guscott, and Kenneth Guscott (and your brother-in-law good friend and confidant, Gladstone "Cruga" Watson).
With love and heavy heart~ S.A.
