I know that I’m a cake decorator, and I am very private, particularly on social media, but I couldn’t not share where the creative side of me came from. The unfortunate reality is, I’ve been thinking of doing this for most of this year but it’s a good way to honour the main man!
My wee Dad 🪽
He could put his hand to anything and I loved being able to give him wee Knick knacks to help him with his creations that would just blow us all away.
Thank you to all who came to his funeral yesterday and to the house over the past few days. He really was a character and will be sorely missed by everyone who knew and loved him 💔
2. Dad’s transplant tree that was planted one year after his surgery. My heart will be warm every time I come home and it’s the first thing I see.
3. Dad made this wee hut with all the wee accoutrements, with his own hands and no help. It even had a smoke machine for the chimney cus he didn’t want to do things by halves!
4. One of Dads pride and joy’s, his garden. He loved his plants and again, made the archway and flower box and is still sitting strong today.
6. Lever arch files, insulin pen lids, medication vials and milk bottle lids were all just a part of this amazing wee house.
7. I can’t give him credit for growing the tree that the branch came from but if you knew Gerry, you’d know he’d rather use things he’d found on the ground than have spent a penny on them 😂
9. His bbq, didn’t stay this clean for long but of course he had to make something he could use for all his unbelievable cooking!
10. Christmas Eve 2019. The day dad came home from his transplant and the most amazing wonderful emotional day ever. Thank you for an amazing life Dad and a bonus 7 years of fun, laughter, badness and love 💕
