Condolences
Dear family, I am very sorry not to be there in person today. I wanted to leave just a few words of condolence. My most treasured memory of ‘our’ uncle Malcolm was an afternoon spent with him when I was visiting Calgary from the UK. I was still a young man and we went to his local. He told me his story about growing up in Shipley, emigrating to Canada and settling in Calgary. He taught me how to tip in a bar, how to ‘down a pint’ and even how to stay clear of trouble. I was drunk after about two beers and of course he was still as sober as a judge.
I will remember long distance phone calls at Xmas and will cherish our family get togethers at what we’re very special weddings. Goodbye uncle Malcom, love your nephew, Ally
I will always remember my Uncle Malcolm very very fondly. Many nice memories, including from my visits to Calgary and from Deborah’s and Tom’s weddings and Nana’s 90th birthday. And not forgetting the afternoon we spent touring Oxford’s oldest pubs (watch out for the low ceilings!)
Goodbye Uncle Malcolm - love from your nephew George
All the years we were mates MVB never let me down even when I often really dropped us in it .I would get that serious menacing look over the top of his glasses near to being murdered sometime held for minutes, then followed by that deep lovely laugh.
A big man with a big heart in every sense of the word he was my best man and best mate thanks for all the years God bless M Eggy Moore
A true Yorkshire man born and bred. Always sincere and totally loyal and faithful to his family and friends. Honest and straightforward- blunt if you like. And yes, he could be taciturn and not always easy to be around -but there was, and is, no doubt that he was a good, a very good, man in every way that counts. Goodbye my brother- I will miss all of you.
Pauline xx
