I love you so much uncle Torry and will miss you. I will miss your smile and laughter the most as it’s one of a kind. I see you every time the kids wear your knitted scarves you made them. I hope to see you in heaven one day. Xo

I have so many fond memories of Uncle Torry on New Years at his home, pool parties in the summer or most recently, watching my precious kiddos fall asleep snuggled into one of his knitted blankets. Uncle Torry always made you feel thought of with his little gifts and loved with his amazing infectious smile. I love you Uncle Torry, I’ll miss your jovial spirit and warm embrace.
