Syd, a genuine one of a kind good soul who touched the lives of not only colleagues, families, friends, but all who had the pleasure of meeting him. The trade has lost a genuine love and compassion only seen from Syd, which not only brought him as a colleague for many years, In looking after family funerals, even the scattering of selling us the odd car or two over the years, but a friend, someone who willed anyone on, in support and care, we mourn a true gentleman & we mourn that love and attitude towards life & in death sadly won’t be seen again. Sincere condolences to Gillian, Spencer & the Lyle & Breen Family Circles.
“Love in death should make us see, what love in life should really be, with this, to know him was to love him”
