The dearly beloved husband of Margaret, much loved dad of Margaret and Sharon, dear father-in-law of Philip and Rod, loving grandad of Christopher, Bobby, Tory, Carl and Josh. Robert moved to Clayton-le-Moors in 1952 before moving to his forever home in Rishton in 1976. He was a loving family man who enjoyed sharing his life with the love of his life and sweetheart Margaret. Robert began his working life as a spinner in the mills at the age of 14, and then worked on a farm where his love of horses and the outdoors began. The majority of Robert's working life was spent at Mullard's on the production line and then as a storeman whilst also volunteering as union representative. Robert's wife also worked at Mullard's for a good number of years. They loved their family holidays caravanning and Robert loved gardening and spending time in his shed where everything had its place. In his retirement he learned to play golf and also took up woodwork. He was always very beautifully dressed. Robert will be remembered for being a true gentleman, a loyal friend and a loving family man. The funeral service was held at Rishton Methodist Church on Thursday, October 31, followed by committal at Accrington Crematorium.
