Help Us Give Daz the Send-Off He Deserves

On 28/02/2026, our world fell apart when we suddenly lost our beloved dad, Daz. It still doesn’t feel real. We are completely heartbroken and trying to process life without him.

Daz wasn’t just our dad — he was a friend to so many. He was larger than life, a proper character, and someone you never forgot once you met him. Whether it was his sense of humour, his stories, or that familiar voice across the room, he had a presence that made people smile. The love and messages we’ve received show just how many lives he truly impacted.

He was a massive Manchester United fan through and through. Win, lose or draw, he stood by his team — and if you knew Daz, you’ll know just how passionate he was about his football. Match days won’t ever be the same again.

As a family, we are still in shock and trying to come to terms with this sudden loss. While nothing will ever take away the pain, we want to give Daz the best send-off possible — one that reflects the incredible man he was and the love so many people had for him.

We are asking for any support towards his funeral costs and wake. Please don’t feel obliged to donate — even the smallest contribution would mean the world to us. Even if it’s just enough to buy him his last pint, every little truly helps.

If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page or keeping our family in your thoughts is more than enough.

Thank you for all the kindness and support during this devastating time. Daz would be overwhelmed to see how many people cared about him.

Forever our dad. Forever Daz. Forever missed.
