Today is a very sad day for my family – my grandfather Stanley, (Pud to us – pronounced like “Pud”ding) passed away.

Out of every person older than myself, Pud always and without fail was a testament to the belief that you are only as young as your mind. For the majority of his life he had an energy and exuberance of a much younger man that infected those around him.

Pud was a man that had experienced enough of his own personal tragedy in life, yet found the courage always to move onwards, never letting the “downs” be the end of his story.

You will be missed Pud; by me, my family, your wife Pat and every person you have ever touched.

Love Always,
Shane.
