A guy over the road died today, never saw him much lately, but as I was growing up him and his missus were one of only a few people who cared and give a shit about me despite giving them grief and being cheeky...When I was 14, I took an overdose and went into Care her and her mate, had a whip round and got me a gift when I was at in my darkest place, I will never forget the love and generosity of them for as long as I live...The missus was also great despite the fact she once tried to knock my head off after being cheeky and she always spoke her mind, called a spade a spade, pull no punches, tell it as it is...
As a family, they have come through tragedy, there son was killed in July 2013 in a motorbike accident...
Despite not being close to them, I am heartbroken and devastated, they are a great family who I have known for well over 25 years
