The obituary notice of Gerrard (Gerry) COUSINS

It’s taken me some time to put words together, but I often find lately that there simply are no words. My dad was the most loving, gentle, humble, and kindest man you’d ever meet. Not a bad bone in his body, and sometimes to his own detriment.

I say this not as a cliche, but as genuine testament to his character. He was one of the absolute best, a proper good one. Generous to a fault. If he didn’t have time for you, he’d make time.

I’ll miss the jokes, his very specific humour, mushy peas, Yorkshire puds, lessons on politics, economics, business, random facts, the puns, new gadgets, sharing joy in the little things.

Dad, I miss you, I hope you knew I am so incredibly proud of you, always. You deserve absolute peace and I hope you have that now. You are the man I aspire to be. I love you

I knew Gerrard as a young man and found him to be a true gentle, kindly and amiable soul ' a good kid' as we used to call him then. he was a friend of my late brother David who often said how nice a guy he was, which was praise indeed from someone who chose his friends carefully. I do hope they see each other again and catch up on those good old bad old days. Rest easy mate....

A Tribute to My Dad

Today, I want to remember my dad for the man he truly was. kind, gentle, and endlessly giving. He had the biggest heart and would do anything for anyone, never expecting anything in return. His generosity wasn’t just in the things he did, but in the way he made people feel safe, loved, and valued.

Dad had a sense of humor that could brighten the dullest day, even if his dad jokes made us groan as much as laugh. And when it came to dancing, well, let’s just say, rhythm wasn’t his strong suit, but that never stopped him from trying.

More than anything, he was my dad. I loved him so much, and I always will. Losing him leaves a hole in my heart that nothing can ever fill, but I will carry his love with me always and I will never forget him.

Dad, I miss you. I hope you’ve found peace, and I hope you know how deeply you were loved.
