Robert Cyril Flavell (22 Nov 1948 - 30 Jan 2026)

In loving memory of Robert Flavell, who sadly passed away on Friday 30th January, aged 77, at University Hospital Coventry.

Robert was a beloved husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather.

A man of strength and kindness, Robert found joy in life’s simple pleasures — time spent together, stories well told, gardening, walks by the river in Bewdley, coffee and cake, watching history programmes and cricket, and cheering on Aston Villa. He showed his love through doing: fixing things, driving any distance, and thoughtful acts of care.

He faced life with dignity and pride and was never alone in his final days. Though his armchair now sits empty, his love lives on in the memories, laughter and values he leaves behind.

Service details are shown under the "funeral service" heading, followed by a gathering of family and friends for refreshments at:
The Starving Rascal,
1 Brettell Lane, Amblecote, Stourbridge, DY8 4BN.

As a nod to Robert’s lifelong passion for Aston Villa, guests are invited to wear claret and/or blue — although we respectfully request no football shirts.

Family flowers only, please. Donations in Robert’s memory to SANDS – the stillbirth and neonatal death charity would be welcomed and appreciated.
