Miss you so much Dad.

Softly out of the shadows there came a gentle call,

You took the hand God offered you and quietly left us all.

And although we cannot hold you we will never let you go,

Because in our hearts you will live forever, because we loved you so.

Jo, Mandie and Rob.

We had a wonderful Papa,

One who never really grew old.

His smile is made of sunshine,

And his heart was solid gold.

Love you Papa.

Jessica, Bethany, Caitlin, Kyran and Niamh.

St Mary Municipality.

It is with great regret that we acknowledge the passing of Hugh, a valued Parishioner, and past Treasurer to the Parish who will be sadly missed by all.

Our condolences to his family from all at St Mary’s Municipality.

25.05.1946 – 01.01.2021.

Adored husband of Jenny for 52 years, amazingly special father to Heidi and Elise, incredible father-in-law to Justin, and a wonderful Grandad (‘Dang Dang’) to Jonty, Henry and Matthew.

We have all been on an extraordinary journey, a full life of love, laughter and happiness. Ron had an exceptional enthusiasm and zest for life and somehow, (‘against the odds’) could always see the good in life with a positive attitude. We are so blessed to have had him in our lives. He is in the arms of our precious Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ, with whom he loved and trusted for Christ alone paid the ultimate price for his reconciliation with his Heavenly Father. He leaves special friends around the world, particularly in South Africa, where we spent many happy years. With our utmost thanks to Dr Hughes and the amazing team of angelic nurses and medical staff in Intensive Care – you were amazing!

He deserved a splendid send-off but in accordance with Covid restrictions, we are having a private family funeral.

No flowers please, just prayers for us to be strong, and if you so wish to make donations in memory of Ron, these may be made to to Jersey Critical Care Survivors, c/o Beval, Clos de la Hallebarde, Ruette des Ecorvees, St Saviour, JE2 7BT or Just Giving page JCC Survivors.
