My granda died the 17th of Febuary.He was 66 years old. My granda's name is John Dixon Renney but everyone called him Dick (Dicky).I loved my granda loads and loads and i still do. My granda lived in Thorney Close next to the thorndale and the thorney close club. The Thorney Close club was where my granda used to go all the time before he got ill.He knew everybody and made them all laugh everytime he seen them or spoke to them. My granda was ill for more than a year going in and out of hospital but he started to get worse then he had to be in a wheelchair. I remember when me my mam and my dad used to take him to asda in his wheelchair, he used to say "go faster" haha and my mam said "what do you want" he used to say " let me have a look" then he put everything in the trolly (haha). My granda was looked after by loads of nurses but he got on with them all and had a laugh with them all. My granda was loved by all the family and all his friends but i would like to mention all his sons and daughters (Deb, Martha, Dick, Will and Aiden) his sons and daughters in law (Chris, Rob, Gwen, Bev and Bev) his sisters and brothers (Pat, Nan, Mary, Cath, Margret, Billy and Brian) and all his grandchildren. If ive missed anyone out i am sorry and i will add you in. so thats my piece of writing of my granda.Love from his grandaughter jessica (My granda used to call me bel).Age 11.

FOR DICK X
THINKING OF YOU X
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am a 1,000 winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the sun on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled light
I am the soft star that shines at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there; I did not die.
FROM CHER N JOHN XXXXX
