Best weekend ever at Stableford Park. http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=25 http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=25 Wed, 23 May 2012 03:43:08 +0100 Today marks the 1 year anniversary of my dad's passing. A ton has changed in the past year, and there's no doubt that his absence has left a massive gap in everyone's lives that were close to him. He's fondly remembered on the many occasions we reminisce, and his memory always brings a smile to my face. Life will always be different without him, but still soldiers on for him. There's not a day goes by that I don't think of my dad, and I miss him incredibly. Thankfully though, the happy memories are plentiful, and never cease to make me realise how fortunate I was to have been so close to him. RIP Dad, hope you're having a whale of a time wherever you are, Love Will http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=24 http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=24 Tue, 04 Aug 2009 14:29:57 +0100 What a smashing website, an absolute pleasure to read such touching tributes to an obviously well loved man. I never had the pleasure of meeting Denis, but, from the photos on this site, I'm sure we would have been friends. I'm sure his grandad (see photo) would have been proud of him. You can see where he got his smile from. Uncle Pete http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=23 http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=23 Mon, 19 Jan 2009 14:24:41 +0100 Denis Beardmore!

We talk the same old rubbish and because your pictures are there on the wall, it's almost as if you're still part of the conversations. Sue will hopefully call in and have a drink with us and we'll toast the fact that we were privileged to have known you. http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=21 http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=21 Fri, 26 Sep 2008 02:29:24 +0100 Den (Dad), Just gathering my thoughts whilst listening to Russell, Eric, Joe and Rod. Thank you for all the fantastic times Mum, you and I spent together which have blessed me with some special memories. You will always be in my thoughts as you always have been. I promise never to say ‘If only I’d’. Love you loads, Your Little Princess xxxxxxx xxx xx http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=20 http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=20 Tue, 16 Sep 2008 04:18:02 +0100 Denis Beardmore ! Where do I begin.............? To quote something Denis once wrote to me... "Winston Churchill once said.... we make a living by what we get but we make a life by what we give". Denis certainly had a lot to give and he gave freely without wanting anything in return. If you needed advice, money or simply a shoulder to lean on Den was always there. Den had a real depth of feeling for people. Den had a huge persona with a special glint in his eye, He also had many many other qualities. He was Intelligent, Caring, Professional, Loving, Sexy, Sensitive, and above all a true Gentleman in all matter of ways. Den and I spent 2007 & 2008 together. In such a short period of time I realised that Den was a very very special person. It was a great pleasure to see the beaming smile on his face and to feel his excitement and passion on match days when he went to see his beloved football team ( Manchester Utd.) Den is now a bright shining star looking over us but Den had his own special star..... Den often spoke about his own special star sometimes into the early hours of the morning. Den told me how proud he was of his bright star and how he had watched him grow from a lovely little sweet boy into a bright young man. Den told how his special star made him feel so happy and how he loved to see his bright star living life to the full. Den's special bright star was his son William.............................. I will forever cherish the Happiness and love that Den gave to me, my family and my friends xx Sue Denis Beardmore 1954 - 2008. http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=18 http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=18 Wed, 03 Sep 2008 11:17:57 +0100 It has taken a while for me to try to put into words how special Denis was to Gill and I. So many fond memories so many good times. In business and in our social lives we always had a good laugh whatever the pressures. My most special memory is when Denis was the best man at our wedding in Lindos. The end of my stag do in Lindos ended with with Denis and I sat on a step putting the world to rights had we had done so many times. It was very early morning when he suggested a swim. The sun was coming up when we stepped into the cool water after many drinks. We stripped on the beach not noticing courting couples and early morning fisherman. They gasped as we skinny dipped in the dawn sunlight. We both got strange stares from the locals as we walked back to our Apartment soaking wet and looking very conspicous. There are so many tales to tell but they would fill the page. Now he cant argue back League is far superior to Union. Denis you were my best man because that is exactly what you are!. You were a very special friend and you are sorely missed. In his best man speech Denis mentioned my brother Tom who I lost a few years before our wedding. He said he felt proud to be taking what he thought would have been Toms place. He never got chance to meet Tom but hopefully he will have met him now in the place for all good men. http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=19 http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=19 Wed, 03 Sep 2008 14:48:49 +0100 Always had a great time with Denis. Here's my favourite photo with my mate recently at Man. Utd. I've plenty more phots if anyone wants them please get in touch with Will. Good-Night Den, I'll catch up with you later mate. Nick. http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=17 http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=17 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 04:35:08 +0100 Denis was a lot of things to a lot of people- Father- Son- Brother - Brother in Law- Uncle- Husband - Lover (not mine though!) colleague -boss & Friend. Denis was my friend! This is a book of remembrance a place to share memories. As I think back of my memories of Den as his friend "The bald bomber" Uhm! I look back with immense fondness, with laughter and warmth. He always welcomed you with a hug, generosity and that mischievous grin. I am so proud to have known him and to have been able to call him a friend. He will live on always in my thoughts. I will raise a glass to him regularly with pride in silent tribute to a great bloke. If I am to sum up what Den has left me with personally when I think back then it is very easy to do. A massive warm grin! http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=15 http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=15 Sat, 16 Aug 2008 09:20:51 +0100 Moments in time are captured with photos and we are so lucky that we have so many, including very special wedding photos of Denis, the Best Man at our wedding in Kenya. From the very early days of meeting Denis we were honoured to be invited on many occasions into his and Lynn's home, where we spent many a night talking into the wee small hours, putting the world to rights with a bottle (or two) of brandy. We, like so many others, will remember Denis for his warmth and charisma, not to mention that unforgettable laugh. Great Friend....Great Man....Best Man. http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=16 http://www.denisbeardmore.com/entry.php?id=16 Sat, 16 Aug 2008 12:02:51 +0100 Well..
