On 30th April, peacefully at home in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, Chris aged 74 years, formerly of Skipton. Beloved husband of the late Wendy, dearly loved dad of Gavin, Martyn and Suzanne, much loved grandad to Jack and Heidi, father in law to Sarah and a dear friend to many. Chris' funeral service will take place on Friday 19th June at Skipton Crematorium at 1.00pm, family flowers only please, donations in memory of Chris would
be appreciated for MNDA. Followed by a wake at Skipton Hotel (formerly Rendezvous for anyone staying over please get in contact for a discount code on the rooms).
Please do use this platform to add any photos and memories of Dad (Chris) that you have. Please also if you could confirm attendance via this platform links also and feel free to share it to others.
Dad had many friends around the world and practically I know that not everyone will be able to make it in person. We will be live streaming the funeral via the link below. We have 250 of these licences however please could I ask that people that are viewing via link buddy up and join together where possible so that everyone that wants to watch is able to do so. The link will also be live for 28 days afterwards & we will also have a recording of it.

Martyn and I would also really appreciate any written contributions, nuggets, gems and memories that we might use in the Eulogy - if you could send them through to gavinbarsby@hotmail.com by 1st June that would be great. They might not all make the cut but we would rather have more than less memories to share.
Thanks in advance
Gavin, Martyn & Suzy XXXX
