Skydive for Simon

Hello our names are Misty and Amanda.

Here is a little bit about why we are going to do a skydive in memory of the most incredible man.

A little bit about Simon , Simon was one of life’s main characters he loved his life and was the most caring loving bubbly soul. Simon would help anyone with anything, he loved the water, being out on his boat the warm sunny days and being sociable with his friends.

Simon was loved by so many and his love for my mum ( Amanda ) was like no other.

On January 3rd 2024 our lives turned upside down when Simon got diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer.

Simon spent 9 days in hospital 3rd Jan - 12th Jan . We got told we would be very lucky to have a year left with him, Simon wanted one last summer out on his boat and doing the things he loved, but we sadly didn’t get that.

Simon became extremely unwell and on the 19th January on his 68th birthday he had a driver fitted in his arm to make him as comfortable as possible. Myself mum and Simon’s son James cared for Simon on end of life care at home until the very end. Simon passed away at home with us all around him on the 23rd January, just 20 days after diagnosis.

As you can imagine 20 days is just no time to process it all and Simon’s passing has left a massive hole in all our hearts.

So me and mum are pushing ourself well out of our comfort zone and will be doing a sky dive on the 19th May to raise money for Pancreatic Cancer. We truly believe it needs more funding and research.

(Anyone that knows me and mum would no we are petrified of heights)

The skydive is paid for so all money raised will be going to Pancreatic Cancer UK.

So please help up raise as much money as we can for this cruel disease.

Thank you

Misty + Amanda
