Uncle John, I have such happy memories of you and Auntie Ivy. You were both such good friends to our parents, Bob and Hilda Young, and I have lovely photos of you all out on the town together having a great time. With love to you and everyone who knew you Magi (or Margaret as you always called me) xxxx

Uncle John,
Only have fond memories of you and Aunty Ivy. Now you are together, along with my Mum and Dad.
I am just sorry that I wasn't able to see you before you left for heaven.
Your Godson,
