Terence Dean (Cocky) Wetherell
(Cocky) 15/8/1966 - 25/1/2022 Memories of a dear beloved Son, Brother, Dad, Grandad, Uncle. 3 years have passed Terry. Thinking of you always If tears could build a stairway, And memories were a lane, We'd walk right up to Heaven, And bring you home again. Love Mam, Rachel, Quentin, Mick, Sammy-Jo and Grandkids. Also the late Craig and Mark. Always with us.
