The Thompsons: You had a left foot like a god
These messages are from all of the Thompsons, starting with the one from Sam:
To Huw. You were my best friend. You never failed to make me laugh and always put me in a good mood. You were never upset and played a part in everybody’s life. You touched everyone and you were a full on legend. I have so many great memories with you. There won’t be a day when i don’t think about you. You had a left foot like a god, you could hit the ball to someone from 70 yards away and it would be perfect.
Carys and Nick: the trampoline

Jenny: Huw’s fun in the snow!
Huw loved his ski-ing holidays with Carys and me. His technique was ‘just point downhill and go for it’! It didn’t take him that long to lead the way downhill with Cas very close behind with me fretting behind!!! He loved stopping at ski lodges for food always eager to try out the local cuisine. He even climbed a mountain too! This picture is at the top of one in Austria.
