Uncle Mike was such a presence throughout my life and took a genuine loving interest in everything I did as a child, young person and adult. He showed the same care in following the many twists and turns in the lives of all the family, always remembering what the kids were up to. He sent lovely cards and letters over the years, always taking the trouble to write a personal message - and one from Josette too. These and time spent in happy and relaxed conversation - often with glass in hand! - helped to fill the gaps in my knowledge of family history, particularly about my father John. He was such a central person in our family and helping to keep us connected to the Green clan, and I have a great many fond memories of family gatherings at 'Red Tiles' with Mike as the perfect host, and of many hours in conversation and debate with him. We didn't agree on everything(!) but it didn't matter - the mark of a strong family relationship. Rest in peace dear uncle, you are so missed, Anne-Marie xxx
