Story

This is a charity ever so close to our hearts, as we received the absolutely devastating news that despite beating Prostate cancer just a few months ago our wonderful Chris - a brave, caring, amazing Husband, Dad and Papi (as the Grandchildren call him) has been diagnosed with a Stage 4 Brain Tumour at the young age of 57.

This awful disease is stealing our parents future together, and their plans for a well earnt retirement together and not to mention so many years of memories we were all yet to make... and time spent with this family and muched love of his Karate!

We will be completing the 55 Mile London to Brighton Cycle Ride on 19th September 2021 in order to raise money for The Brain Tumour Charity, which sadly is one of the lowest supported charities and is therefore in desperate need for any donation to get closer to finding the cure...

We understand this year has been hard for all, emotionally and financially but please donate to this amazing cause, anything that you can afford to give us so very much appreciated.

We need to raise funds to facilitate the Brain Tumour Charity to find a cure for the cruel disease so that more families do not have to endure this pain and heartbreak.

He is truly the best dad in the world, a true family man who is never without a smile on his face.

We love you so very much dad now, forever and always.

You are our Hero!

Update:

On 2nd June 2021, Despite Chris’ determination to beat this cruel disease and his families’ best efforts to support him, keep him comfortable and happy Chris passed away on 2nd June 2021 peacefully in his home with his family around him. Chris’ had one final wish, and that was

"Open the windows and doors and let me fly out"

and that was what he did.

We miss you Chris - our wonderful husband, dad, and Papi. No words can describe the heartbreak we all feel, but we will complete the London to Brighton Cycle, for the Brain Tumour Charity in his memory, in his name and knowing how proud of us he would be.

Christopher Roger Sharp 2nd February 1963 - 2nd June 2021
