According to Lancs Live, the Global Engineering LTD employee will be remembered as a “leader and a winner” as well as a beloved husband to wife Nicci, father to Jacob and Isabelle and step-father to Kaiser. The Blackpool man needed round-the-clock care soon after his diagnosis after the disease took hold.
