Roy was Linda's second husband. The couple met when she was 32 and had Steve five years later. Linda had dreamed of retiring with him in Cleveleys, near Blackpool, where they made many fond memories. Instead, Roy has a memorial bench at Bents garden centre near Leigh, where his family pay tribute to their 'lovely man'.
