For Dot,Julie,Darrell and family.
I was so sorry to hear of Lols passing. We have many happy memories of enjoying your families company on Corfu for some years. Lol was a gentleman and a great singer. My thoughts are with you all at this time.
Take care. Love Lynn. xx

We were privileged to know Lol as a dear friend who made us feel more like an extension of their family. His sense of humour was second to none which often resulted in all of us including him crying with his infectious laugh. As for his singing he could have been right up there with any crooner, we were big fans and he will be a massive miss from our lives. RIP we love you loads Michael and Miriam
