Gareth Lambert (14 Jan 1959 - 18 May 2020)

65 on Sunday! How time flies. You are still terribly missed daddy. I'll try to celebrate in my own small way on the day for you. Love you.

Joel.

Thinking of a kind, warm and gentle man who I once had the joy of working with, on a project to benefit others. Which is the loveliest Legacy to leave. Much love to Jenny and family from all the Hewitts xxxx

I first met Gareth when he joined Doncaster Children's Department and immediately realised he was talented. I was delighted when he later joined the Fostering Service . He made a significant contribution to the development and improvement of the service. He was interested in research and became vey knowledgeable as well as skilful; assets which were further enhanced by his wisdom and professional judgement.
He was a brilliant colleague and supportive team member with a dry wit and the lovely twinkle in his eyes always meant a good story was about to be told.
Rest in peace Gareth. It was a privilege to work with you and I will always remember you as one of the best fostering social workers I ever met.

Ieuan, Joel and I would like to thank everyone who came to Gareth’s funeral, making it a sad but very special celebration of his life. Thank you also for all the lovely flowers and cards which have come to the house and for the very generous donations being made here for Alzheimer’s Research with such touching messages. We feel very blessed to have had Mr G in our lives and will never forget his love for us.

Wonderful memories of long summer holidays on the beach in Rhyl, our childhood was precious and we were so lucky with our parents. I remember Gareth as a kind and gentle boy. I am so sorry for his passing. Rest in peace dear cousin xxx

Fondly remembering trips to France and Ireland (who could forget come dancing ninja), as well as the trips to the pub when we visited Haxey. Gareth will be sorely missed. Sending our love
Kieran, Claire, Martha and Eoin

Gareth was a fantastic work colleague who always had time for everyone. I hope he has found a comfy chair to lay back on in heaven. He will be sadly missed by so many. My thoughts and prayers are with those he has left behind especially Jen and family x

We are glad to have had Gareth as a friend, he was a lovely, caring, compassionate man and we have many memories of wonderful times spent together.

In fond memory of my brother Gareth; a genuinely good man who will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.

Much loved brother lost way too early but thankfully free from the heartless and cruel trap of alzheimers. Remembering the best of you.

It’s a while since I saw Gareth but I remember him to be a lovely, welcoming man with a ready smile & always ready to offer a helping hand. My thoughts are with Jen & the family

We all had fun times on our travel adventures & gatherings over the years.
Gareth was a kind and considerate friend who will be missed by all.

All I can say is:
Gareth was a lovely man.l liked him immensely
It was always a pleasure to be in his company away from the stresses of work. He was witty, jovial and quick to see the funny side of life.
I am sad for.his wife Jen and his family.
He was taken from us too early, but perhaps he is in a better place, away from the awful, terrible disease from which he suffered.
God rest you.Gareth. friend,teammate and companion through a significant part of my life.
God bless Jean

A good laugh, a good cook, a good man.
