In loving memory of a wonderful husband, father and granddad, Andrew Stanley Wilkinson, who sadly passed away on 24th June 2026 ❤️
Donations warmly received in Andrew's memory, online to British Heart Foundation or donation box on the day for Southend Rugby Club. Thank you.
Dear Andrew,
The news arrived and stole the air
A heavy weight too hard to bear
We shared the roots of family trees
The joyous laughs throughout the years
A bond forged deep before we knew
The bitter taste of sudden tears
Though time has torn our paths apart
Your memory stays within my heart
Sleep well dear cousin, friend and kin
Linda xx
It is such sad and tragic news. We are thinking of Andrew’s family at this very sad time. With love, Uncle Michael, Aunt Linda and family xx
So sad to hear that my amazing Uncle Andrew had passed - he's technically a cousin but was always 'Uncle Andrew'. One of the funniest, loveliest people I ever met. Ever since I was a kid always had me in hysterics at every family function. He endlessly ribbed me in my Navy days for my 'Jack Blairs' (flares) - part of the uniform not a lot you can do but he didn't care! Always so warm, always saying 'love you' and always signed off if you ever spoke to him on the phone that way as well. Andrew got me my first ever freelance client in 2008 when I left the navy and even recently was messaging me on LinkedIn with connections to potential new clients. Rest in peace Uncle Andrew, one of the best. Love you XXX
God bless you Andrew. You will be missed by all who we're lucky enough to know you. Lots of love, Aunty Margaret and family. Xxx
My hero ❤️ Love and miss you so much ❤️
Chip off the old block! 🫡❤️
Sending love to the whole family ❤️
My biggest cheerleader always 🩵
You were the best Dad and Grandad in the whole world. The kindest soul with a smile that will stay in my mind forever. I wish me and the kids could have one more squeeze but we know you're watching over looking after us all 🩵
Andrew, how lucky were we to have you as a cous? Although you were more like our brother. I’m going to miss your sense of fun and mischief and how you always had ‘our back’. Most of all I will miss YOU! A void never to be filled. Lots of love Jo.
Rest in peace dear Andrew ..we miss you so very much ..a good friend who we were lucky to call family xx
