The most amazing person - Uncle Jack


Yesterday i met one of the most amazing people, i think i will ever meet.


Losing my beloved Nan 3 years ago was the most heartbreaking thing i have ever faced. She meant the world to me. Uncle Jack is her older brother and at 95 years old has outlived all his brothers and sisters. In a way (although i know my nan is always wih me), he is the only thing from around Nans time that i have left. He lives in South Africa and yesterday we fetched him and his son John from the airport. It was like looking at my Nan again and the love i felt for him was instant. He is the most beautiful and sweet person and instantly took a shine to Madeline and George (or as he calls him 'mince pie boy'). So sweet when he said the four things he missed most were mince pies, scratchings, pork pie and black pudding.


So here he is my Uncle Jack.
