It is with heavy, and
ripped apart, hearts that Angela Bland and Gareth Fairhurst have to announce
that their dad – George Fairhurst – passed away yesterday. Many of you will have
known George, whether it was him from walking around the village with Holly,
his trusted and much loved Border Collie or as a former Cllr for Standish.
It was unexpected, and both Angela and Gareth,
are grateful that they were able to be with their dad and share some final
words with him before he passed away peacefully.
As anyone that has experienced
a similar event knows, it leaves a huge void.
He will be missed
dearly by his children and respected spouses, grandchildren, family and
friends.
George Fairhurst
26 June 1941 – 16 April
