I only met your father once, I was in his house with my father, I was astonished how large the house was to me. Your father’s brother was my grandfather, my dad was his nephew. I was also struck on how much your father looked like my dad. I remember Aunt Peggy in the Short Strand talking about him when I was there. May he be at rest, I hope he is having a cup of tea by the hearth listening to his favourite songs. Best wishes to you and your family from your relative north of the border.

Peter, I was sorry to read about your Dad's passing and subsequently learned of Damien's also. We never feel as old as when our parents die. With sympathy, Linda (Ritchie) Cookson
