Roy Arthur Black sadly passed away 26th february 2008 after a short but brave fight with cancer, holding his daughters hand.
At 73 years of age, he had a great life with paddy his wife, whom he was married to for 47 years.
He had 2 children, mark and lesley 6 grandadchildren and 2 great grandchildren.
Roy was a very proud man never selfish always thinking of other people first and always made sure evreybody else was happy in life..something we will always miss
He worked all his life to get by and made sure he and paddy had evreything they wanted, which included many holidays!
we miss his smile, his laugh his humour but most of all..his love for all of us..which was always on show,never a day when we didnt feel loved or cared for by him.
Although he isnt here in person his spirit lives on, every where we go we no hes by our side guiding us through life
May you rest in peace grandad now out of pain

Ten months have past and yor spirit still lives on in each and every one of us..keep looking down on us all grandad we love and miss you so much x
Sorry i havent wrote in a while grandad, thats not to say i dont think or speak your name anymore. i brought you a lovely keepske for your ashes the other day, it was very emotional putting it in your pot. I still miss you and wish you were here every single day, it is so hard without you in our lives. Xmas is coming again, the time of year we all dread..its just not the same. Love You always x
It was your birthday saturday, and once again it was so hard :(
I tried to be positive and kept thinking you wouldnt want me upset but it was impossible.
The pain doesnt get any better grandad, never will
Love you always and forever x
Never a day goes by when i dont wish you were here beside me. Wished more then anything you could have been here for my 21st birthday, but we dont always get what we want i guess. Goin through such a bad time at the min grandad, need you so much. Cant belive its been nearly 3 years, still cant accept ur not coming home :( lOVE U X
Tried so hard not to get upset at xmas but it was impossible. I missed you more then ever, thought this year would be diff but if anything it was worse! Would give the whole world for you to be here for my 21st, feel free to let me know your around wont you. I love you, so proud of you grandad x
Nearly the 1st of december, the time of year you and nanna loved most, xmas.
We have all tried to be happy at xmas as we know you wouldnt want us to be unhappy, but its so hard without you here, its just not the same without you opening every single present after it had been unwrapped. Dinner time isnt the same without you watching the queens speech, what we would give for you to be here.
We are all trying grandad, so hard to be strong but sometimes we cant always as strong as we would like to be. Nanna misses you so so much, and i just dont kno what to say to her most of the time.
My 21st in january, breaks my heart that you wont be here to celebrate, ill be blowing a million kisses to the sky that day, hopefully youll catch every single one. Im sorry i cant be strong grandad, i just miss you so much every single day.
Im so proud that you were my grandad, you mean the world to me, and i will love and cherish you for the rest of my life

Well summer has gone, autumn has arrived. That time of year again isnt it grandad, the time of year we all dread?
Started my new job, settled in well. Would of given anything to have called you on my first day to tell you how id got on, told you how the people are etc etc. I called nanna the day they offered me the job, but it broke my heart not to ask for you.
3 years in march and the pain remains, i thought they said it gets easier? It hasnt got any easier for me grandad, you just try to accept that your not coming home, but even thats a struggle.
Im gonna be 21 in january, im not so much of a little girl anymore, but il always be grandads girl. always. Id give the world for you to be here, so just make a quick apperance and let me know your around
You always were more then a grandad to me, you were more then a dad ever could be, you was my friend.
I sometimes worry you wouldnt like the person iv become, but i know you will always be proud of me.
I love you, forever in my heart xx
Still cant belive im never gonna see you again. I miss your infectionous laugh, and your smile that lip up any room. I will always love u x
