Just had to announce the passing of my lovely grandfather in law. Ben was born, 13.08.1908 and passed away either last night or this morning, peacefully in his sleep, 11.04.2010.

At least he had a good innings and is reunited with his beloved Mary!

Fran,

What an innings, and i am sure he will be very much missed. I hope that you listened to him and took note of his life, we all wish we had spoken to our loved ones whilst they were here.

RIP Ben.
