I joined the British Army with Daz in 1977, lost contact and then met up with him again last year back in England. ’til we meet again my friend, I am proud to say “I knew Daz Porter”.
To one of the best friends I’ve ever known. Rest in peace Uncle Spadge. You will be missed dearly. Love you Buddy.
rest in peace buddy

I was given this big 14lb baby when I was 8 years old and look after him day and night until he wasb16 and joined the army. Spadge was my first baby and I saw him as my eldest child as well as my baby brother. He was a gentleman, a scholar, a humourist and one of the most honest and true humans I have ever encountered. Anyone who knew him, loved him and cherished him were the lucky ones. A true one off. This world will be a worse place without him. A piece of me has gone with you my baby bro. I love you as much now as I did when I first set eyes on you 52 years ago. x x x x x
In Loving Memory of Daryl G. Porter
We were so looking forward to seeing you for the wedding and seeing the new chapter of your life in the way you always deserved. You were an amazing uncle, a great man and taken before your time. I will never forget the get together in Woolhampton, my last memory of you. Love always.
We can’t believe you’ve gone away. Our hearts are in so much pain. I love you Spadge and thanks for the inverted rainbows, cloud angel and ‘S’….we know it was you confirming you are still with us. Keep it up baby bro. XOXOXOXO
Daz, gone but not forgotten mate. We will raise a glass and toast forgotten friends. See you in the next life.
Words cannot express the shock, anger and utter numbness that I felt at the news. We may not have seen each other often, but never was it a dull affair. You certainly made me feel that everyday was an experience and grab life by the horns. Bless you SPADGE, RIP XXXX
2 boys and 3 girls…. a recipe for disaster one would think!!! Not true. The first time I saw you you were in a dresser drawer..your bed for a while was a wooden one! Being raised together in the same room was difficult at times as most families found, but in all those years we never had a cross word, this was your basis of life.
Being older than you and in the Army together, I remember going to Arborfield looking for you dressed in my uniform, EVERYBODY knew you, one of your buddies said to you “There is a fullscrew (Cpl) looking for you Porter, I gripped him for calling you Porter and you gripped him for calling me a fullscrew saying” hey, that’s my brother”, This showed the respect we had for each other. The total fun we always had together and the brotherly secrets we had will remain with me. I had the honour of being asked to be your bestman at your wedding next year and there was an invasion planned for next June! I just wish that my life had been as wonderful and humour you showed throughout your time on terra firma would rub on me. A POWERFUL man with the strength to write messages in the sky.
I love you more than the clouds could say, but keep them coming bro, we need to know that you are OK and still with us. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
You were my big cousin from across the sea, and I will miss you deeply. You had a big heart in what you did, helping all thous USA kids. You found your love right at the end, your true love Lynn and your friend. You were taken much too soon my heart is broken once again bit you are with our family and our friends. You are the best. Xxxx
My beloved Duke…where do I begin. From that fateful day down at Val’s, when I first looked into those blue eyes of yours, my life was never to be the same. The roads that we had travelled in the past were both long and bumpy, but our days together were the trip of a lifetime. The love we shared was something that I never believed I deserved or would ever find. Our unconditional love and mutual respect were what made our love so effortless and what we both looked forwward to for the rest of our lives. How could we have known how short that time together would be. But I will live every day, for the rest of my life, with that love in my heart. For it is there that you will remain forever. No one will ever fill the void that I have and I long for the day when we are together once again. I<3u2daymp.....a&f
Daz Although you are gone, you are remembered. We honoured you with your own cross of rememberance at the National Arboretum here in the UK earlier this year. Have a beer up there for me mate. Steve
Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart, you on my mind……words from a song which describe how much we love and miss you. Ironically, in 2 weeks time on the 11th of November we honour heros who paid the ultimate sacrifice, YOU! MY ONE AND ONLY brother became one of these heroes….. But YOU are our hero….Uncle Tough Guy. Sleep tight brother….we are all close to a reunionxx
