GOLDFINCH,

Gregory Phillip.

Passed away on April 2, 2022. To my most precious, loved and adored Bear. You fought so hard to stay with us and if love could have saved you, you would be with us forever. I can't imagine my life without you. My best friend. My heart is broken.

I wish I could see you one more time

Come walking through the door

But I know that is impossible

I will hear your voice no more.

I know that you can feel my tears

And that you don't want me to cry

Yet my heart is broken cause I don't understand why someone so precious had to die

I pray that God will give me strength

And somehow get me through

As I struggle with the heartache

That came with losing you.

My arms are wrapped around you, my irreplaceable Bear. I love you forever, Shezzy.

GOLDFINCH,

Gregory Phillip ((Dad, Grandad, G Dad)).

Passed away on April 2, 2022. Our dearest, darling dad and grandad. You fought a courageous battle until the end. We are so proud of you. You taught us to be strong, but nothing prepared us for the final pain of losing you. Our lives will never, ever be the same. You were adored and idolised by us all. An amazing role model as a dad, dad-in-law and grandad.

They say there is a reason and they say that time will heal

But neither time nor reason will change the way I feel

A thousand words won't bring you back, I know because I've tried

Neither will a thousand tears, I know because I've cried

So let me tell you something so there will be no doubt

You're so wonderful to think of, but so hard to be without

Not all heroes wear capes. Love you forever our beautiful bear, Ness, Liam, Matt, Dan, Rory and Liam Og.

We will take the best care of Mumma/Nanny.
We will continue to speak your precious name.
You've left the largest legacy and will be cherished and missed forever.
Dad I will kiss your angels good morning.
We love you Papa.
Rest in love My Dadda xxx
