  • Dear Great Uncle Harold, although we never had the opportunity to meet you, we are all so proud of you.

    Report 
  • "Great Uncle Harold, it is such a great shame that my parents, siblings and extended family never got the chance to meet you. Your remarkable resemblance to my Father, your only nephew, Gavin is striking. You left behind a wonderful family who would have loved to have spend time with you. Your memory lives on through us all".
