Harold Jeffery

Harold Jeffrey was a neighbour. A gentle man who I came to know gradually after Tom was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. This led us to discover Harold also had the disease. Unfortunately, Harold's diagnosis came too late to be treated successfully. He had had no symptoms until he collapsed one day and tests revealled the cancer had already moved outside the prostate gland.
As a young man he served in the Navy and went on to work in the print industry. With Marion, he travelled in Europe and particularly enjoyed visiting the Lakes where they had a caravan and took pleasure in using their boat. There is much more to say about Harold but both preferred a private life and I would like to respect that.
Harold Jeffrey died with great dignity in 2014.
