Suddenly passed away on Sunday, 3 September, 2023, in Hull Hospital, aged 65 years. He will be sadly missed by all his family and friends.

His life in Jersey was full of good times, playing football and golf when he was younger, working in the post office when he was older before finding his true vocation of gardening. His greatest achievement will always be his sons, Ben and Anthony who he loved with all his heart. His friendship to Millie, the mother of his children was ever loving. He moved to live in York where he made a wonderful life with many dear friends. He was a loving son and even though he lived far away he never forgot to ring his Mum. The thought of never seeing him again brings great sorrow to us all. He now rests with his beloved sister Lindy and in the precious hands of our Dad/Papa in heaven.

Tears fall as we remember you, and will continue to fall until we meet again x.

God bless you and we will keep you safe in our hearts.

All our love, your ever-loving family xxx.
