Oh Harter's !!! you have been in my life for 30 years and to think you won't be anymore breaks my heart. I can still picture you walking into school and us meeting for the first time, you were this big ball of fresh air that seemed so happy go lucky and I just loved spending time with you. That feeling never wained in the 30 years and every time we met up, at parties, family days with our kids you still made me feel like that teenager again! You had a rare gift that made everyone want to be with you, you were the life and soul of any get together and you were my red wine partner, its going to be hard drinking the stuff without you pal...but don't worry I won't let you down.. The speech you made as Best man at our wedding was just brilliant, the room was in stitches at points and tears at others, I still watch the video, such happy times. I was deeply honoured to be God father to Mia and I promise to you that I will always be there for her and for the rest of your beautiful family. Speaking of family, you and Amy mean so much to us and have a special place in our hearts. I have so many wonderful memories of our time together, trips to Twickenham, BBQ's and you turning up with a lasagne for us when Jack was born, priceless. But no one will ever forget the rendition of "Mandy" by Elvis and Hellraiser at Emma Hooley's fancy dress party. (I will upload the video on here) There is a whole in my heart where you once filled it but you will never be forgotten, you truly are a one in a million. I love you pal and miss you terribly. xxx Jamie
