NAAKE JOHN HENRY CHARLES SAMUEL (JACK) Age 92. Passed away peacefully in the QMC on February 20th after a short illness. DAD One of life's true gentleman. You kept your independence and quite rightly were very proud of your age. Even towards the end, you were still bringing a smile to our faces. You always enjoyed our lunches together. Life will never be the same without you. We will love you forever. Your loving son John, and your loving daughter-in-law Anne. xx GRANDPA You stayed cheerful and strong to the end. Your routine, independence and determination to get the best and stay mobile is an inspiration to us all on how to live a long and happy life. You will be sadly missed and Sunday lunches at the pub will never be the same again. Make sure you continue to enjoy the "pinkies" and at 92 we think you might well have been right - stay clear of the potatoes! Lots of love and God bless. Lloyd and Patricia. xx DAD If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again. Always in our hearts. Love Chris, Maria, Philippa, Samuel and Martin in Australia. xxxxx TO MY DEAREST DAD It was wonderful spending quality time with you this Christmas at Gardener's Cottage, the place where you were so happy. You always put a positive view on everything, which has been an inspiration to me. You are in my heart forever and will never be forgotten. Lots of love to you Mr Pink!
