Story
Since Dec was tragically involved in a car crash which was completely outside of his control, the community came together to support him and the family.
Whilst this army of love has been pivotal in helping Dec's loved ones hold it together in their hour of need, we all recognise that there is more practical help which we can give.
This page is designed to meet that need.
We as a close knit group of friends can help Dec's family with the financial burden of sending the lad off fittingly.
Over the past 13 days or so, we have all been living in hope (some people quite literally!), but the big lad made his own selfless decision to call it a day and help others on the donar regisiter. <3
All i can guarantee to you is that 100% of our collective donations will be accounted for properly and will go towards Dec's cause.
(Should there be anything left over after contibuting to the standard service cost and wake, we'll have a social media platform discussion to ensure we distribute as we all see fit. Perhaps a memorial would be nice and this seems to be the general consesus)
On behalf of his loved ones (namely Pam, Jan, Carl, Deano, Lauren...) thank you so much for the continued support. I'm sure the big man himself would have been incredibly proud and humbled by it all.
