So, so sad to hear of Uncle Martin’s passing. Glad I had the opportunity to visit during the Christmas season, never thinking it would be our last. 🥲 I will remember his silly and absurd comments however it was all in fun😊. He loved to have a few choice words over his favourite hockey team especially when they were losing. Haha
