In loving memory of Chris Drakeford who sadly passed away on 23rd November 2021. A loving husband, an amazing Dad, a brilliant Grandad, a fantastic Father-In-Law and a great friend to many. Chris loved his family. He was a great conversationalist who loved putting the world to rights. Chris loved his holidays, his knees always felt better in the sun. Many lifelong friends were made on these holidays. He sadly passed away at Kings Mill Hospital in the Critical Care unit with his wife Chris, daughter Melanie and son-in-law by his side. There is a massive hole in all our lives and he is really missed.
Flowers only from family. We would love donations that will go to Kings Mill Hospital Critical Care Unit as a thank you for all the care they gave to him. A link for donations are on this page.
