I will miss you greatly. You were always positive and never had a bad word for anyone. I only wish I had known you sooner in my life as you had a great influence on changing my attitude towards other people. We had many great snooker matches topped off by winning the Tony Lambert as partners In Dundas in 2019.
Anna was such a loving and devoted wife and were such a perfect team.
Anna please keep in touch. I am so sorry I cannot attend the celebration of life as we leave Jan 25th for Florida.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.

Love Kevin and Sylvie

There was something so calm about the peace I felt holding your hand and resting with you. You deserved so much more life than you were given, but you lived your life to the fullest. You touched and filled so many souls just in being yourself. My Grampa, I love you and you are forever alive in my heart. Your granddaughter Chelsea
