To all the lovely people of east dulwich who may remember my father Tony and his 4 legged buddy Jed his old English sheep dog. For many years he would walk around the area with a big friendly smile chatting up the ladies!

For the last few years he has suffered from ill health and has been house bound and sadly on April 7th he passed away peacefully aged 90 years.


I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all those people who looked out for him and made sure he was ok on some of his not so good days!


My fathers funeral will take place on Thursday 19th April 3.15pm at Honor Oak Crematorium and afterwards we will meet at Vintage Pretty's on Northcross Road around 4pm.

Oh Karen - my deepest sympathies go to you and your family. I often passed the time of day with your dad over the years and had wondered about him and Jed having not seen them in such a long time. In fact, the last time I saw Jed you were walking him and we had a quick chat - that must be well over a year ago now. My thoughts are with you...Helen

Hello Karen,


I was very sorry to hear about the passing of your Father Tony. I am a dog owner (Toby -Red Fox Labrador)and spent many a nice time chatting to him and of course with Jed. I ony met him a few times, but always enjoyed his company.


Is Jed still around? Unfortunately I only read your message today! I would have come to his funeral if I had known.


Warm Regards,


Mandi

Thank you for all your lovely messages ( of which some of them I read out at his funeral ) it is lovely to know that so many kind people chatted to him and looked out for him.


We gave him a good send off !!


Mandi thank you for you message Jed passed away several years ago :(

My condolences.I am not sure I knew your father but knew an elderly gentleman who I spoke to when we met on LL mostly. Was your father a professional or semi professional cyclist at one time? We used to talk about bikes.

Im sure that was my dad you talked to,he wasn't a professional cyclist but he was a very keen one.

He was a member of Catford Cycling Club and used to take part in time trials, most of the time he

finished in the top three which was pretty good as he was the oldest member.

    • But we’re not in Canada so why celebrate their recent election? Wasn’t their winner our Bank of England director up until his defection to his homeland of Canada? He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.
    • I expect that they consider it should be a free choice what to do with your waste, and that segregating it is a waste of money, no doubt it's all a woke conspiracy.  I expect that others are more up to speed with Reform policies. I should have asked Nigel when I was drinking with him.  Well within the vicinity of him in Westminster pubs a couple of times.
    • Let's see how a Leader and party that thrive on division and demonising elements of our society actually do when they have to deliver. Let's hope that the two main parties don't consider that the best way to fight Reform is to become like then. Even less reason to visit the small town where I grew up.  Not a cause for any joy or celebration. Happy to celebrate the Canadian result.
    • The Reform Party has surely taken the Conservatives and Labour by surprise? I’ve been a Conservative voter since the age of 18 and voted for them in the General Election last Summer. Sadly Labour were elected but their policies on so many issues have been their downfall as they did not stick to them.
