We are so sad to share that our dear Dad, Step-Dad, Grandad and Great Grandad Jack Archibald has died following a short spell in hospital. He passed away peacefully, surrounded by family and so much love.

Whilst still getting over the loss of his dear wife Pat, he had recently enjoyed a number of family events, including the celebration of his 80th Birthday in June.

He was a popular member of Rochford Hundred Golf Club, a lifelong Arsenal fan and constant companion of Bob the Dog.

❤️ John "Jack" Bruce Archibald ❤️ 24.6.45 - 2.8.25 ❤️

❤️ "Just love each other" ❤️

Funeral details are listed on this page and all are welcome. Please let us know if you'd like to come for catering purposes. We request no flowers and know that Dad would very much appreciate donations instead to the British Heart Foundation or Southend Hospital - again, details are on this page. Thank you for your support in this difficult time.
