In loving memory of Dennis Downing who sadly passed away on 18th September 2025, aged 60.

Den was father to Davina, Nicky, Ryan & Keelee. He was a dear grandfather to Mia, Kyan, Jayden, Kya, Kairon, Bailey & Bronte.

Dennis was taken too soon and had so much more life to live. He lost his wife Maggie back in 2007 but finally found love again and some inner peace in 2022 when he met Tina. She often joked that he was the odd job man she couldn't get rid of and they were looking forward to building a life and new memories together.

Losing him has left us all broken hearted and missing that mickey-taking but infectious laugh šŸ’” Keep smiling, until we meet again xx
