To Judy, Michael, Peter and families. So sad to hear the news of Welly passing. What a fabulously full life he has had ... always keeping busy and involved in the community, and of course the daffodils. We are thinking of you all at this time and remembering some fantastic times from years gone by and the brilliant mind, sharp wit, and all things 'smiling' that were Welly. He is fondly remembered by us all from our Medbury days. Would love to attend a celebration of Welly's life at a later date. Love to all. Val Ginders, Julie Cheesman (Ginders) and Andy Dobier (Ginders). Xxx

Hi Jude. You and Welly were my first employers and I would like to share some personal thoughts via email. Unfortunately my message has returned from the mentioned email. I would like to forward it to you somehow though. I have special memories to share
