I remember him all the time but I am convinced that if Covid had not weakened him Tony would not have died when he did. and I am sure many others will have been the same so not directly died from Covid but because of it. Thinking of them all R.I.P <3 <3

The sad thing is thing is Maureen was ready to be sent home but her support had been cancelled whilst she hospitalised

They had to set up new care but it wasn’t available

She needed carers to come in to see to her but she wasn’t bed bound

Whilst waiting she got COVID and in a short time she went downhill and she lost her fight

Her family are devastated :-(

Thinking of my sons lovely father-in-law Mark who died in January after being on a breathing machine for 3 weeks. Such a special man and my sons "hero", who welcomed my son into his family as "the son he never had". Never forgotten. X
