Frank Fiddyment 1938 - 2018
Dad died in hospital on Thursday 29th November after a short illness. Helen, Simon and Lucy would like to thank all those who have already sent messages of love and support.
Dad's funeral will take place on Monday 7th January at 2:00pm at The Garden of England Crematorium, Bobbing.
We would prefer family flowers only but should you wish to donate in dad's memory, Demelza House is the chosen charity. Cheques should be sent to John Weir Funeral Directors at 130 - 132 High Street, Rainham, Kent ME8 8AR or alternatively donations can be made through www.funeralzone.co.uk where you can also share memories, stories and photos of the wonderful man who gave so much of his time and energy to the village he and mum lived in for so many happy years.
Friends are welcome to attend the funeral service, and to join us at The Crown, Upchurch afterwards to share stories and raise a glass in his memory.
Thank you
Helen, Simon and Lucy Fiddyment
