TILY, Joseph:
Who died suddenly on 2nd of June 2023 aged 43 years. On a Friday night the second of June the time just after seven
Twas a long weekend for an earthly king
When you met the king of heaven
A year has gone – we miss you so. Your jokes, kind heart and voice. But knowing we’ll meet in heaven some day. Gives us a reason to rejoice. Remembered with love by his family
