Funeral Director
In loving memory of Manny Simmonds who sadly passed away on 1st June 2020 from a Pulmonary Thromboembolism.
Due to the current COVID 19 situation we have unfortunately been told that only an immediate circle of Manny's friends and family can attend the service. Whilst partly expected, this is still upsetting news as we know how many of you would like to be there for him.
Arrangements for attending the service are being made now and we will try to contact everyone who is able to attend over the coming week.
As we are unable to meet to share memories of how you met or knew Manny, we would love for you to do so here by writing messages and adding any photos. This isn't the farewell that we would have wanted for Manny, and we would love for everyone to join us later in the year/next year for a proper goodbye and memorial.
Instead of flowers we have selected donations to be made to the British Lung foundation in Manny's memory, to support their work into research and raising awareness.
