HOLLAND GERARD Birthday memories of my Brother and our uncle Gerard Holland, first away from home. This first birthday without him feels different. Quieter. The space he once filled so effortlessly now carries an emptiness that can never truly be filled. And yet, in that space lives love. We miss his voice, his humour, his moaning, and the comfort of knowing he was only ever a phone call away. We miss the simple things most. The everyday moments that never felt ex- traordinary at the time but now mean everything. We carry him in our hearts, memories and in the stories we tell. Happy Birthday Gerard. Not a day goes by that you are not thought of, missed, and loved beyond words. Forever our brother. Forever our uncle. Forever in our hearts. From Danny and Tracy Petticrew and kids Brónach (Lola), Danielle, Katie Belle, Michael and all their partners and kids. Xxx
