We had the huge pleasure of hosting you when you came to Manchester UK in 2016 and you became a member of our family. We laughed and cried together but I’ll most remember your mischief, the twinkle in your eyes and your deadpan jokes. You touched our lives and we will never, ever forget you. See you again one day my lovely friend xx
