Our deepest sympathy to you Tina and your entire family on the passing of your beloved father, husband, and grandfather. A very sad time but one to be celebrated when you think of all the happy times you had with your father Tina. Although I did not know your father, I can image that he was an inspiration and a role model for you throughout your life. May the pain subside in time and may the smiles upon your face, when you think of those times, never fade away. Much love, from the Beanland Family.

Laraine , Toni , Brent, Gavin , Tina , all your in-laws brothers , & Grandchildren , When my Brother found you two gem's on one of his foreign trips in the Southern Hemisphere it started a chain reaction of bonds that were meant to last . Last they did with memorable visits to the Northern Hemisphere in particular good old Blighty and more specifically the County of Cornwall . The pair of you slotted in to the family holiday with Ron AKA Mutton Man providing a leading role in the well documented Indiana James & The Tale of the Golden Scorpion !! Not exactly an Oscar performance but my word how Ron took to the camera it was amazing ! He was well known for his customary Mutton & Tomato on Bread obviously a Southern thing . The miles can not and will not separate our thoughts from you all at this very sad time after all it's only Geography ! Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.These words are so very true . From us all here in Southern England Andrew , Elaine , James & Sophie X
