Thank you for all your kind wishes and words - yes, this is the Micky that lives in Tamworth, Midlands and has a brother called Mugsy and also known as Cabby. He passed away very peacefully on Saturday 7th May.
Funeral will be in Tamworth - we will let you know the date and the details when we have them.
Uncle Mick will be remembered as a remarkable man who lived his life for his country, family and friends. Whenever I was there to visit, he made me laugh, made me feel like it was just yesterday when I saw him last. He will be missed, but to my Aunt Pauline, Mandy, Samantha, and Charlotte and all the family, take comfort in the good memories he left you. Much love,
Deborah Morse Spooner, Orange Beach, Alabama USA
