‘Always in our thoughts
Forever in our hearts’

A place is vacant in my heart
Which never can be filled
A bouquet of beautiful memories
Sprayed with a million tears.
I wish I could have held you
If just for a few more years
I’ll hold you close within my heart
and there you will remain,
To walk with me through my life
Until we meet again.

Rest in peace my loved one, my friend, my husband
Love Helma

  2. Ken,
    Gashy, you’ve left a huge hole that not ever you could fill in. A true mate and genuine friend who was always there if you needed a hand. A can do person ready to tackle any task.
    Don’t ever say “Ken, you won’t be able to do that” cause he will prove you wrong every time. We had some great laughs together and shared a few glasses of red too.
    Rest easy now my friend and ou will remain in our thoughts and be my friend forever.
    Warmest wishes
    Uncle Arthur
