Story

Thanks for visiting my page. 

My brother Paul at the age of 43 passed away very suddenly of a heart attack 4th August 2019 after playing at a gig. My brother was an accomplished musician and played bass guitar with Power Quest & Hysteria (a tribute to Def Leppard). He was playing at a gig for Hysteria when very shortly after coming off stage he became ill very quickly and suddenly passed away of a heart attack I was there with my brother at the time he was amazing on stage as always rocking it out and doing what he loved to do, I loved to watch him at his gigs and I would go to watch Paul at every opportunity I could. Paul was young, fit & healthy played football and went swimming with his little girl regularly. My family and I would never ever expected anything like this to have happened. It has left myself, his little girl and his partner, my parents, nieces & nephews, aunts & uncles, cousins and all of the family absolutely heartbroken 💔 

My brother really was a smashing guy he was very much loved and made quite an impression on everyone he met, he was always good at making people smile, laugh, lift people’s spirits and had nothing but kindness for others. Paul was also very talented and so passionate about his music & most of all a very doting loving father to his little girl. 

For the first time Im doing the Glasgow Kilt Walk in memory of my brother Paul, raising money & awareness for the British Heart Foundation and I'd be so grateful for your support. The BHF has helped halve the number of people dying from heart and circulatory disease in the UK but sadly every day hundreds of people lose their lives. It's only thanks to support from people like us that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures. £24 could pay for two hours of research by an early career scientist, but every pound helps so please give what you can to help me hit my target. Thanks you so much 🙏🏻 🎸❤️🏃🏻‍♀️

Let’s help to save lives, save hearts & save other families & loved ones from absolute heartbreak 💔 Thank you for your kindness & reading my story of my  much loved brother Paul we all miss him so much ❤️
