Eric Francis Vanhees (3 Apr 1933 - 26 Oct 2020)

A wonderful father who will be sadly missed. You will now be reunited with Mum and David, I couldn't have asked for better parents and brother. I know you will be watching over all of us.
Sleep well, your loving daughter., Susan

I met Dad back in 1981, when I started seeing Sue. He was a kind and gentle man of few words. He used to wait for Sue and I outside the pub, to save us the taxi fare home. Always ready with the one liners, the guidance and the home made wine. A fantastic Grandad to both Amy and Ben
A truly great man who I will miss.
Reunited with Shirley and David

Rest in peace Pop

Rest in peace Eric. King of the cheeky, inappropriate comments, you will be missed immensely by all family and friends who loved you dearly.

Sleep Well Gman <3

Whether it was Gman singing “why are we waiting” at the black tiles pub or him cleaning bananas, every time I saw him I couldn’t help but smile. No matter what he had going on he always brought a smile to everyone’s face with his witty comments.
He will be missed dearly by a whole friendship group, but he will never be forgotten.
Sleep well G man <3

It was such an honour getting to spend the time i did with Eric. That smile, and the sparkle in his eyes will be greatly missed.

My big brother. So many good memories - fishing together, climbing Garth Hill, trips in his Morris Minor, holidays in Poole, and of course sampling his home made wine. He will be much missed.
