Uncle Arthur was a kind, generous man who loved his darling wife, Aunty Marian and Stoke City FC, but I’m not sure in which order. He was a marvellously supportive brother to his oldest sister, our mother, Doreen, and as children we had many wonderful family events, where music and games were played in a fun, happy and hilarious environment. He looked after Aunty Marian when her health deteriorated and carried on stoically without a word of complaint for many years. He was a good, steadfast, honest man, and it was a privilege to have had him in my life.
