When I was a little girl maybe 4/5 years old every Friday my Dad took me to the Double fronted Toy shop at the bottom of Derby Street in Bolton and let me choose a special gift 

He would hold my hand and sing to me Timin by Jimmy Jones Ioved this song and I loved my Dad xxxx

• Life has so many twists and turns
• We never know what can happen in an hour day week month
• That sure as eggs are eggs has happened to our Family
• The past year Dad has not been the best for any of us!!!!!
• Health Wealth Children Grandchilden all taken a piece out of the Cake
• It has been a hard time for all of us but I know you are still around to help us all pick up the pieces

Standing behind a Fruit stall in all weather when my Dad was setting out the stall ready for a Busy market day I would keep him company and we would chat about all sorts of things 

My Dad taught me about people the ways of the world how to keep my wits about me

The importance of communication especially as a trader meeting people every day helped me to become who I am 

Dad showed me a path which was good for the soul he taught me to be kind to all ages and respect my elders 

He worked in the Family business from a very young age 1940 s onwards until he had to retire in his Seventies due to Cancer he loved the Market and was very sad to leave his Stall 

The Stall is still there today
