I will always remember Uncle Michael for being a gentle and kind person. He will be very much missed and I only wish I could have spent more time with him or been there today. Sending all my love to everyone who has been touched by this true gentleman.

Rest in peace Mike. Such a lovely bloke, always a smile and chat as I was growing up as a friend of the family ( his nephews) and whenever I saw him in adulthood subsequently. Top postman! RIP.
