  🕯 It has been an honour to know you and to be a part of you life, I only wish it had been longer. There are very few people in this world who have as much strength and determination as you, absolutely astounding and a medical marvel. You will always be thought of, talked about, missed and be forever in our hearts. When you were ill last year you asked me to look after Jenny for you, my reply was "of course I will, you know I will but you aren't going anywhere - you are stronger than that" My god you were strong. With all my heart I promise I will do anything to keep Jenny safe and happy. I wish there was more we could have done more to help you make it through this time but I know that now you will be comfortable, pain free and watching over us - probably with Boris giving him groomies which he so loved from you! With much love, James xxx

  🕯 Kevin, You did not deserve to end your life like this and our great sadness was that we were prevented by the virus from visiting you in hospital. We are so grateful that, at the end, you were surrounded by all your family and they were able to tell you how much they loved you.We will always remember you:WITH GREAT ADMIRATION for your courage and determination in the way you fought so hard to stay here with the family you so adoredWITH JOY for the wonderful day when your beautiful daughter married our son James and our two families were joinedWITH LAUGHTER when we remember the first day you came to us for tea and your emptied our sugar bowl, not just once, but TWICE!But above all with LOVE"Although I've gone - life must go onBut stop and pause awhileRemember me as the man you knew The man who loved to smile.Although I'm not here - I can still see youI am watching from aboveSo now and then please think of meAs the man who loved to love."Rest in Peace Now. With Much Love, Jenny and Andy Nisbett xxxxxx

  A friend of 30years+ and one of the most memorable things about Kevin was that he was such a kind considerate person who would help anyone in need, nothing was to much trouble. How your family was your pride and joy a loving husband to Eileen, so proud of your two children and all of their achievements in life and of course the icing on the cake when your granddaughters came along it seemed that life couldn’t get any better, during all this time your illness was slowly taking its toll and you had several episodes in hospital but with your grit and determination you were back amongst your family who loved you dearly. As poorly as what you were we still thought that you would be back home but this time it had taken its toll and we have lost a very dear friend. We will miss the chats your wicked sense of humour, huge pile of sandwiches, no one could beat your ham sandwiches and yes I was very privileged to have tasted your hot cross buns, Busy Bee will never be the same now, so rest peacefully our dearest friend we will very much miss you, all our love Sue and Dave xxxx
