Paul Rees funeral

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Eleanor and my sisters - Alex and Kath - and I are asking for donations towards our father's funeral. Our father was found collapsed on the street on the 10th January, and despite everyone's best efforts, he was pronounced dead soon after. We had lost our mother only 14 months before, so this loss is extremely difficult for our family who were still struggling with how to live without our mother. Our father had several strokes before his death, but before that he was a strong member of the community. His door was always open, and his children's friends often felt comfortable enough to come round alone and hang out with him. He always made sure his daughters' friends felt included in whatever fun was going on in the household. With his ex wife, he fostered over 30 children in the span of 15 years and even after that, he would often open up a spare room to a friend or family member in need. His firework displays were iconic every single year, with many people from the neighbourhood coming over to watch them. In his later life, he enjoyed movies and TV shows extensively. His recent favourites included Deadpool & Wolverine and Charmed (although the latter was not new to him).
