The obituary notice of Stephen GARSIDE (Joey)

Joey, we along with many many others will always remember your humour and kindness. We remember you for the good times (and the Rattlers) we shared at Ferndale. Thank you for all you help.
We miss you - rest in peace my friend.

Love from Wayne, Christine, Katie and Chloe

Lovely guy ,it was an honour to have Joey as a friend .So sad and thinking about you Ellie on the sadness of losing your hubby and best mate .God Bless top man you are a legend .🥲🥲🌟

So sad to hear that you are no longer with us, Stephen. Always the naughtiest boy in our class at Puss Bank and part of the bike gang around Ecton Avenue ( when gangs weren’t scary but just us neighbourhood kids). You were always a sweet lad and you sent me my very first Valentines card, aged 10. I feel really sad that I haven’t seen you in such a long time. You always loved my mum too. You were an important part of Ecton Avenue and childhood and, like Adrian, you’ve been taken too soon. My memories of swimming in your duck pond, parties at our parents homes wearing our best clothes, riding round Lark Hall on our bikes, climbing the conker tree and playing down the pond have all been wonderful ones to pull into adulthood with me. Rest in peace Stephen. Many tears will be shed for you. Just so sad.
