Story

David, Elizabeth's beloved husband, and our cherished Dad, Papa, Father-in-Law, Brother, Uncle and Great Uncle sadly passed away suddenly on the 1st November 2021, from an unexpected heart attack. He departed this mortal coil just as he would have wished, quietly, with absolutely no fuss or bother to a single soul. 

He was always on hand to help anyone with anything and always tried  and succeeded in finding solutions to problems. We thought if friends and family would like to make donations, the tireless work undertaken by Alzheimer's Research UK would be an appropriate beneficiary.  

David, in his later life took an interest in an organization which analysed  brain function.  He assisted them with their research at the University of Exeter and he agreed to donate his brain after death to help others.  Therefore it seems fitting that any donations made, would be used to help with similar research.
