An irreplaceable man left this world. Although our hearts feel empty without you, we must remind ourselves that they have actually become more full. For with your spirit our hearts gain strength, peace, and all the love you had to offer this world. You will always be in our hearts Poppy.
Thank you to all who reminded us of this through your support over the past week. Our family has certainly been touched.

My condolences to your family. I have not seen your family in so many years, but have never forgotten you. It was so awesome being next door neighbours for all those years! Your dad will be greatly missed!

Thank you to all my Family members and Friends of my Father that could and could not attend. The outpouring of love and support towards my Mother, Gail, Darin and I, as well as Sarah,Ted, Kristy, Jennifer, Gerald, Kristina, Darien, Alyssa and Madelyn are so welcomed and appreciated. Dad always had a way of bringing the Family together, and as unfortunate as this was, he brought us closer together. I hope that everyone (of age of course) has a little "Drinky-poo" in his honour.

He is never truly gone. He always will walk in front of us to protect, walk behind us to push, and walk beside to guide us in the right direction. He will forever be in our hearts, our souls and memories, and always missed.

Many thanks and much love to Earl Robertson (cousin) that spoke so many touching words that all of us wanted to say and hear. You brought laughter and reflection at the same time. As a true Robertson should. I know he's very proud of you and your clan.

As my Father always said to me, "Make a buck, spend two" = Be loved once, love 2 times back.

Dad, I miss you so much. Your name and legacy will live on in all of us.

I will always remember Uncle Ken as the sharpest dresser in our clan and his great dancing skill. (Dancing with Mom, his sister Thelma, at her 25th wedding anniversary. He had an amazing sense of humour and a great Robertson laugh. Love and hugs to Aunty Barb, Gail, Keith and Darin. Love, Carolyn, Ian, Devon and RIley. (He is with our angel Spencer now.)

How blessed we were to have Uncle Kenny as part of the Dootson family clan. This incredible man was an impeccable dresser, who could out shop any woman ... for I often wondered how many pairs of shoes he owned? It was a toss up between him & Auntie Barbara who could tell the best joke. He will be fondly remembered and truly missed. Without a doubt, he is surely livening up heaven with Grandma Dootson, Uncle Ronnie and my mum Dorothy. All our love to Auntie Barbara, Gail, Keith and Darin. We love you, David, Donna and kids. xoxo
