With broken hearts we share the sudden passing of our much-loved husband, dad, brother and gramps Tony, who left us suddenly and unexpectedly on August 28th, aged 75.

Much loved best friend and husband of 53 years to Caroline, devoted dad to Alyn and Rhian, and much loved father-in-law to Madlen and Gareth. Dear brother to Jeff & sister-in-law Jackie, and the proudest and most devoted gramps to Oliver, Evan, Louis, Nye, Imogen and Griff.

He brought warmth, laughter and love to everyone who knew him, and his loss will be felt by many.

A service to celebrate Tony's life will take place at St Peter's Parish Church, Cockett, on Monday 29th September at 1:45pm, followed by a private family service at Morriston Crematorium.

Family flowers only, please. If you wish, donations in Tony's memory can be made to 'Richard Wieser Parkinson's Centre' via Funeral-notices.co.uk or cheques maybe presented to Lee Davies of Phillip G. Davies & Son Independent Family Funeral Directors, Cockett, Swansea. SA2 0GB. Tel: (01792) 581924.

Forever in our hearts, always loved and never forgotten.
