The thinker, the fixer, the voice of reason.
The leader, the teacher and to us the all knowing.
The wisdom we didn’t always understand but the decision we wouldn’t defy.
From days gone by a giant in stature, in the here and now still one in our minds.
The one place we would always be safe, no matter what.
A family ledged beyond my generation.
Or simply put..........My Dad.


To us he was all this and more, so if we forgot to show our gratitude for all the things you did, we are hoping you knew all along how much you meant to us.

Never looked for praises, was never one to boast,
just went on quietly working for the ones he loved the most.
Dreams were seldom spoken, wants were very few
and most of the time worries went unspoken too.
Was there as a firm foundation, through all our storms of life,
a sturdy hand to hold on to, in times of stress and strife
A friend we could all turn to when times were good or bad,
one of our greatest blessings, the man that we called Dad.

A loving husband of over 60 years, a father, grandfather and recently a great grandfather.

I’m not going to talk about Arthur’s achievements, as he never did; so here are some words on how he was seen by others.

He defied age leaving all those around him in awe of his mental and physical sharpness.
He was infinitely wise and had an ongoing thirst for knowledge that never subsided
I’m not sure if there was anything he couldn’t do, or, eventually teach himself to do.
He was a fantastically strong role model, always providing a shining example,
and genuinely taking great pleasure in the achievements of those he loved and cared for.

Looking back over the years he leaves behind an incredible collection of memories that will never be forgotten.
He was the head of the family who would bring warmth to every room he entered. His silence would speak volumes and his words of wisdom listened to by all.
His general knowledge and passion to learn was nothing less than inspiring and will continue to be so.
He was a very special person with such a huge heart; something that spread love, positivity and happiness to all of those around him.
Thank you for everything you have done for us, you will live on forever in our hearts.
