A pleasure to work with Melvyn on our Flambé projects at Royal Doulton. He was always happy and cheerful and will be very sorely missed xx

We met on ward 201 & from the moment we met we just clicked. We were always together on the ward & I'll never forget how you were there for me in my dark times. You & your family took me & Nikki under your wings. You will never know how special you & your family are to us. I will miss our phone calls. I will keep fighting like you said. We will have that fishing trip when we meet again. Love Darren & Nikki xx
