Glyn and his late wife Josie acted as unpaid carers for their friend and neighbour the late Mrs Phyllis Rees (our mother) of 130 Neath Road, Rhos.Their 3 daughters Jane, Nia and Rhian and their children also visited and entertained Phyllis, and helped out whenever they could. The whole family have been extremely supportive during my mother's later years until she moved to the Mayflower Care Home, Alltwen. It was a pleasure and reassuring to have such a lovely family as 3rd cousins who gave her such devotion - and lots of delicious honey.

I first meet Glyn working with him as a policemen in the Neath area. Glyn was great company in our work with the police force.
When we retired we use to see each other when we had a meeting of retired policemen
He would bring in his home made honey for sale.
Glyn was always great company and enjoyed the police pensioners evening's where we had a great time remembering the occasions when we worked together.
It was very sad news when I heard the news that he had passed away.
A loss of a gentleman
