I just wanted to come on here and let you all know that our wonderful Dad passed away peacefully at home on the 5th of October, aged 69, after being diagnosed in July this year.

it's difficult to find words at the moment so I will share with you what one of my sister wrote:

'We as a family wanted to let you all know that our Dad, D passed away peacefully yesterday at 3pm. He died at home with my Mum, myself, D Jnr, L, A by his side. He received a diagnosis of advanced prostate cancer in July this year and fought so hard against a rare and aggressive version of the disease. He was so brave and I am so proud to call him my dad.

Dad was such a big character and so full of life it’s hard to comprehend a world where he no longer is. I really can’t put into words what an amazing dad he was and how much we love him. He inspired us to work hard, ask big questions about the universe and to always see the funny side of things. He told me a few weeks ago that love transendes time and space and I know will feel his love and presence for the rest of my life. Thank you for everything dad x'
I should say that Dad was one of the unlucky 2% and his cancer was neuroendocrine with small cell elements and unfortunately had spread to his liver.
thanks again for all the support you have given me on here.
