As you can see from my father's last blog entry he recently had to undergo some "repairs and maintenance".
This was to be a knee replacement operation which would enable him to walk the dog without pain and go on longer walks on holidays in his beloved New Forest or the West Country.
While recovering from the surgery he picked up a chest infection which developed into pneumonia and sadly he died on Friday 4th February 2022.
He was a gentle man with wide ranging interests as can be seen from his 2259 blog posts over the past 15 years.
We loved him dearly and I am desperate with grief at his loss but take some comfort that he led a full and interesting life.
His thoughts in this blog are part of his legacy and he will live on in the memories of his friends and family.
