    Weʼve raised £1,845 to In loving memory of our Dad and Husband, Dave. To help fund vital equipment for Rosewood Ward at Darent Valley NHS Hospital.

    Funded on Saturday, 15th June 2019

    Don't have time to donate right now?

    Story

    Dave Roberts was a dad of five and a loving husband to Elaine Roberts. Six months ago, our dad went to donate blood like he always did, every 3/4 months for the last 30yrs. But on his last visit they detected something wrong with his blood. They sent him off to his GP.

    This was the begining of his cancer fighting journey.

    Dave was doing so well and appeared to be getting the better of the cancer. Until our mums birthday, dave became unwell and was admitted to Rosewood Ward at Darent Valley Hospital.

    The doctors and nurses cared for Dave very very well. our Mum stayed with him throughout. Until the day we all had to say goodbye.

    Many people have asked about donations instead of flowers for the funeral so as a family we thought what better legacy than to dontate to the ward that cared for him so well.

    The money will be raised through this page and passed onto the hospital In our Dads memory.

      Today myself and my mum will be taking a cheque for £2,000 to Rosewood Ward in Dave’s memory. I seriously can not thank you all enough for your generosity and support. When Dave was a patient on the ward they had said that their ECG monitor was broken, so I am hoping this we go some way in helping to repair or replace this vital piece of equipment. Thank you all again. I’m sure I am right in saying Dave would be very humbled and honoured by the love shown. xxx

      Still can't believe he left us so quickly. Like me, all his old Hackney mates will miss us having a pint and a laugh together. Love to Elaine and the family he was so proud of.
