Percy was a wonderful hard working husband, father and grandfather. His wife, children and grandchildren were his world. He worked since the age of 16 up until the age of 58. He enjoyed volunteering with the town, ambulance services, and his church. He was a lover of nature. He spent many hours out enjoying his garden, planting trees, strawberries, sunflowers, pumpkins and grafting plum trees. He was known by his family for his continuous love and support. He spent many hours entertaining his grandchildren, playing and telling stories of Bounce and Spy, his two childhood dogs. This was a true expression of his love, patience and desire to give a piece of himself to them. Until death us do part and until we meet again, we will always love you!
