Henry 'John'KINGKING Henry 'John' In loving memory of a very dear, and cherished father, husband and grandfather, and trusted friend to many...

Henry 'John' King, who passed away on 14th July 2024. John to his family and friends, and 'Harry' to his beloved Mum.

An abundantly kind and generous father, a loving and devoted husband, a tip top craftsman; who created kitchens, toboggans, bird tables, and garden benches... (an abridged list, not necessarily in that order!). A very skilled yachtsman, who sailed the length and breadth of Britain... Really, an exceptional man and, above all, one of natures gentleman.

One year ago, today, you set sail in a heavenly direction. I imagine you now, sailing downwind, perfect conditions, with a gentle breeze, on a warm (but not too warm!) summers day, navigating your way to a rural idyll, where an expertly pulled (half) pint will be waiting for you... and a test match playing on the radio...

You are greatly missed, by all of us.

We are thinking of you, with so very much love, on this day, and everyday,

Rachael, Diana, Robert and Gordon, Enid and Mike (your lifelong 'baby brother'), Neil and Sandy, and your grandchildren Jody, Dora, Reuben, Bethany, Annabel, Justine and Chicky.

''Therefore you too have grief now; but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you...''
