This lovely man was one of the kindest, gentle, kind and funny people I've ever met.
This is truly heartbreaking 💔
Steve, you will never be forgotten.
Your love for Dawn shone through and equally hers for you.
You leave a big void for your friends and there were so many.
Lots of love
Stephanie and Tony. X
