Leave a tributeDeepest Sympathy Trev, Clare and family.
Memories that go so far back... Laurie was involved with the Comley family since I was a lad. Dad and Laurie, both superbly fit, used to have friendly tussles at games or at the pool -- the old bull and the young bull. "You can't beat experience" Dad would taunt. They went on to work together on the bricks for many years; they made very hard work fun -- joking, laughing and rubbishing each other. Laurie was a kind, down to earth, honest bloke. Full of cheek but you could always count on him. Rest in Peace Laurie. Hoc will be waiting.
Our condolences, Trev and Clare

Dear Laurie.
I have so many memories of the time we spent together and even though you're no longer here. I'll cherish yhem forever. I will miss your laughter so much and mischief in your smile. When i feel the sadness welling up I'll remember it a while. For though you are no longer here. U will never be truly gone. So long as i have these memories your spirit will carry on. So untill i see your smile again. I'll hold you in my heart and mind. A shining example, my uncle of the best of humankind. Give Aunty Anne a hug and kiss for us. Stace and Girls will always remember your cheekiness and the silly jokes u would tell them. We love you. Love Phil Stacey and girl's. Xxoo P.S hope god doesn't feed u weeties as i can always remember me sitting on your back step waiting to go to work and hearing you running to the loo after 2 mouthful of weeties. R.I.P pops. Love Phil.December 18, 2022 7:13 pm
