    Story

    Anthony Birch ,known to most as Tony was a larger than life well loved man .
    He knew many people and always had time for everyone . He was often seen about with his beloved dog Toby .
    Sadly Tony passed away this year on the 30th January 2017.
    He will be sadly missed by all that knew him.
    As so many people liked him we are trying to raise the funds to get a bench in memory of Tony either up Honeysuckle lane high salvington or The Gallops findon valley . He was often seen in both places walking Toby.
    Any amount small or big would be gratefully received for Tony's memorial bench .
    Don't worry if you can not donate just sharing this post will help towards getting the funds for the bench .
    The bench will cost between £1000_£1300. If more money is raised than needed it will go to the Royal Brompton hospital.
    There will also be donation money boxes in some local shops .
    I will let everyone know where the bench has been placed when the funds have been raised and Tony's brother has chosen a spot .
    Many thanks .

      Update from the Page owner

      Thank you to everyone who has donated towardsTonys bench. With the just giving page and a money tin in the village shop we managed to raise just under the target . Tony's brother will be donating the rest. He choose a beautiful spot for the bench up the gallops with great views of Cissbury ring and the surrounding area. Will keep every one up dated with the bench progress. Thanks again. X

      We haven't lived here long but used to bump into Tony regularly while out walking our own dogs. Suddenly we stopped seeing him and now we know why. A lovely man who always had time to chat. Very sad.
