The end of this sentence is never - "do as the Romans do" it should always be something unrelated and very very random like:
"When in Rome...add lavender to your milk"

In Loving Memory…
… of our beloved Grandad who passed away 2 weeks ago. We paid our tributes and said our goodbyes to him Thursday just gone. The service went as well as could be expected, we had the opportunity to share our favourite memories of him as well as hear how he is remembered by others. A lot of relatives and friends turned up on Thursday reminding us of how much he was loved.
When I think of my Grandad I have many happy memories, like how you always knew when he was about to say something because he would give a little cough before he spoke or how he always had his shiny black hair slicked back before he would come downstairs in the morning, but as soon as the takeaway closed the hair would become unslicked and he would let it fall around his face, like he was saying “ok shop is closed, no need to look so handsome”. Perhaps my favourite memories of him are those where he is laughing. When he laughs his face breaks out into a huge smile, he squints his eyes and his shoulders shake but there is never any sound!! It didn’t matter what you were doing or what you were saying you couldn’t help but laugh along with him!
However, what stands out most about our Grandad and what I will always remember is his positive attitude. He never seemed to let anything bother him. He always believed that things would get better and would always tell us to keep looking on the bright side no matter how bad things might seem.
Beloved Grandad, a gentleman, our protector, our hero and above all else our friend, you will be sorely missed but you will live on in our memories, may you rest in peace.
