My darling Julie, It’s two years since we spent our last hours together which seemed so normal but of course was not. We sadly lost your Mum in March but it is comforting you will be together again. The family has increased, first of all a new granddaughter Erin Julie born on 21st November, your Mum’s birthday and Ned Arthur John born on 3rd April. That’s a sister for Ava and a brother for Heath. Lily, Archer and Ivy are growing so fast especially little Ivy who you hardly had chance to see because of lockdown, and which is finally over. Laura, Karen and James have been busy with their lives and all miss you enormously especially the girls not having you around for the births. The job at King Street is coming to an end and is due to be handed over today. I am starting my notice period and looking forward to retirement once again, at least until something else comes along to keep me occupied. I keep thinking of all the holidays we went on in May which was always a special time of year, but now brings back memories of a different kind. All my love Stephen ❤️
