5. Dear Pop

   Although we are sad that we can no longer see you, we are glad you are now resting peacefully and you are no longer in pain

   Now back with the Nan, just in time to spend Valentine’s Day together

   I’ll make sure I pass on to my kids the right way to eat porridge (with butter and sugar on top) and the love for liverwurst on fresh bread

   We love you and we miss you

   Love From Sarah, Andy, Parker, Brylee, Callan and Levi xox
