In loving memory of Nicholas Baugh who sadly passed away on 1st December 2016
It is with great sadness that Nicky and I are having to announce that our Dad Nicholas Baugh passed away after a courageous battle with cancer, at the Marie Curie hospice in Bradford.
Our Dad was both caring and approachable and this was reflected in his relationships with his family and friends and also in his role as a psychiatric nurse. Throughout his life Dad was grateful for anything that anybody did for him always showing his appreciation for what he had and constantly supporting those around him even when he was suffering.
Dad had three grandchildren Ellie, Molly-Anne and Lennon he was an absolute rock supporting them through some very difficult times whilst creating the most brilliant memories and giving them all the love in the world.
His passion for nature was apparent in the crazy collection of pets that he had over the years, ranging from the usual dogs, cats, birds (parrots, love birds, chickens) a selection of reptiles that included an out of control boa constrictor. The boa had to be rehomed due to its size when fully grown at 7ft and because it attacked dad every time he fed it, on route to the animal park dad had put the said snake in a pillow case and whilst he was driving he looked down and saw it had managed to escape, so he had to pull over to contain this already angry constrictor. Our Aunty Diana was saying today that the old lady who lived next door had commented to their mum that if she saw Nick walking an elephant on a rope she wouldn't be shocked, which proved that his love of animals started from an early age.
Those of you who knew our Dad either just through a one time meeting, or for a number of years will remember him as a friendly instantly loveable guy that could talk the hind legs off a donkey. Good looking with smiley piercing blue eyes that turned the heads of many ladies. One of the biggest parts of his personality was his quick witted humour and his very typical dad jokes. (please if you remember any share them below). Feel free to share some memories below.
