The Loss of a Father Is the anchor pulled from the seabed the steering wheel unhinged the mast split by lightening and the bow broken by storm. The ship that you sailed until now feels unsafe no longer weather-proof and without direction or braveheart to speed its way. Perhaps you did not even know that he was your compass that you gazed upon his lead like a North-star in the night. He gave you all of this you see without notice or congratulation diligently consistently continuously guiding always showing the way in the way he knew how. And whilst you are cast adrift I know this to be true you will anchor yourself once more my friend when you realise that his voice still speaks still guides still brings brave heart your way in the roughest of storms. And the answers you seek he already planted deep within your heart for he knew one day you would need to sail alone. So he buried little pieces of himself within your heart your mind your spirit and your soul little breadcrumbs of love to show the way forevermore.   (Donna Ashworth) …

Dearest Grampy Burge. The brightest light in any room. A man who was loved by all who knew him. Never did I not have a smile on my face around you, Terry, with your warm hugs and your wit. Thank you for your love and your light. Men like you are in short supply, and the memory of you will be treasured forever. I will love and miss you always xx  …

Terry. You were such a special person. You were my godfather and you never forgot that. You were always a constant in my life.  Your infectious laugh and cheery disposition meant it was alway so lovely meeting up and being around you. You will be so sorely missed by everyone who loved you xx …

I met your dad just the once. We stopped there half way through a walk and I could immediately tell he was a lovely caring gentleman. He was chatty and made me welcome as well as make me one of his speciality coffees ☕️ I’m sure he will be sadly missed but that you have lots of happy memories 💙 …
