We are raising vital funds for Young Lives vs Cancer in memory
of Iorwerth Gruffudd-Jones. Known to most people as either Mr Gruffudd-Jones (as their teacher or Headmaster of Tower House, which he co-founded with his wife Dorothy) or Iori, an extrovert, kind and passionate Welshman who loved his family and friends, Welsh culture, gardening, building and renovating and chatting and was one in a million!  He lived to 90, had an incredible and full life. He died very peacefully in the company of his family after a short illness - still loving a chat in his final few days.

Not everyone is this lucky and he was a passionate supporter of Young Lives vs Cancer after his beloved youngest grandson was diagnosed with cancer aged 5 and needed two years of chemo. Gruff is now doing really well but his Taid knew only too well how hard it was and the vital support offered by Young Lives vs Cancer.

Rydym yn codi arian hanfodol ar gyfer Young Lives vs Cancer er côf am Iorwerth Gruffudd-Jones. Yn adnabyddus i’r rhan fwyaf o bobl fel naill ai Mr Gruffudd-Jones (fel eu hathro neu Brifathro Tower House, a gydsefydlodd gyda'i wraig Dorothy) neu Iori, Cymro allblyg, caredig ac angerddol oedd yn caru ei deulu a’i ffrindiau, diwylliant Cymreig, garddio, adeiladu ac adnewyddu a sgwrsio ac yn un mewn miliwn! 

Cafodd fywyd anhygoel a llawn tan yn 90 oed. Bywyd gwych ond hiraeth mawr amdano. Bu farw'n dawel iawn gyda'i deulu ar ôl salwch byr - yn dal i garu sgwrs yn ei ddyddiau olaf. Nid yw pawb mor ffodus â hyn ac roedd yn gefnogwr brwd o Young Lives vs Cancer ar ôl i’w ŵyr ieuengaf annwyl gael diagnosis o ganser yn 5 oed ac roedd angen dwy flynedd o chemo arno.  Mae Gruff yn gwneud yn dda iawn erbyn hyn ond roedd Taid yn gwybod pa mor anodd oedd bywyd ar y pryd iddo ac mor falch o 'r gefnogaeth amhrisiadwy a gafwyd gan Young Lives vs Cancer.
