Story

Our dad passed away after a very short battle with cancer on September 20th 2015. He was a very selfless and caring man who would do so much for so many without wanting anything in return, other than to make people smile. He loved sport and made us all so proud by competing in marathons triathlons and bike rides for charity... Even while having chemotherapy!! He wore his CF shirt with such pride and raised money so that me and my brother Alex could have a better chance at life. He had so much to give and loved life displaying such bravery and a drive to succeed in everything he did. We will live our lives in his memory with the courage and strength he has given us. He touched the hearts of so many and will be sorely missed in all our lives.
His wish was that all donations after his death go to the cystic fibrosis trust so that we can continue to fight for our life and find a cure.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Your support and kind donations have been a great comfort to our family throughout the most difficult time. We are so touched to see what our dad meant to you all.

Just found a lovely picture of dad and Murray wallis taken in 2008 running the GX fun run with his CF shirt on. Thought it was nice to post here as it shows his dedication to the sports he loved and the charity he ran for and supported. You are sorely missed dad. Love you xxx

Please sign the petition to make life changing medicines available to us. Dad would've been happy to see this progress and he would've been the first person I'd have told about it. He was always interested and positive.
