Tubby's love of all of God's creations was inspiring. He was always happy to share his passion for nature with anyone who would listen, young and old alike. He will be truly missed. May God bless you and keep you, in your time of sorrow.

Jim and I were very lucky to have Tubby entered our lives almost ten years ago when he dropped off some of Lucy's garden tomatoes. Tubby has filled our lives with much love and good humour. We will always remember him in the little and large ways that he spent his time with us.
Lucy, you are in our thoughts.
