Memories

Today was the funeral of a good friend. Although he was almost 92 he had been in pretty good health, albeit with some mobility issues, so it was a real shock to hear he had died so suddenly. We got to know him when we bought our house from him more than 33 years ago. He was a great character and always told us we were ruining his house every time we made an improvement. When we first decorated the dining room we stripped it back to uncover this wallpaper. We had been joking about it with him, saying it must have been put up when the house was built, when he admitted he had put it up. These pieces were rescued and framed to bring out whenever the subject of home improvements was raised. We'll miss him.
