Gareth was a close friend at Torpoint School in the early 1980s. His warmth, sense of fun, and mellow spirit always shone brightly. When Ian and Derrick told me the terrible news, I was utterly devastated.It brought back so many memories: his dad, Dave, taking us camping and canal boating; sitting in his home on Sydney Rd, poring over back copies of Smash Hits and listening to records; playing football together. Hearing his catchphrase, 'Geddon mate'. Those were special times.It's hard to comprehend that Gareth is no longer with us. He was a truly wonderful human being. I have cherished memories of a special man who was taken far too soon. My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones.Farewell, my old friend.

It has, either by inheritance or acquisition, remained in the family over seven generations.We strive to deliver a first class service, one which would only be acceptable to a member of our own family.
