Guy Anthony Redhead
My Dad (Guy) was diagnosed with melanoma cancer which is cancer of the skin and various organs on 14th of september 2007. He was a very proud man and insisted that he told everyone close to him himself rather than hearing it from anyone else, even his children. Few weeks after the doctors told him that there was nothing that could be done to stop the cancer as they had tried chemo but it wouldn't work as the cancer was too advanced. The whole way through he was certain he was going to fight it, but as God only takes the good ones he sadly couldnt as it became too advanced.
He sadly passed away peacefully on 21st of November 2007, surrounded by all his family at East Lancs Hospice.
He was born in blackburn and lived in blackburn until he joined the navy. He travelled all over the world meeting different people. At 20 years he met my mother (Julie) and got married producing me and my brother Guy. Sadly they didnt stay together.
Some time later while he was still in the navy he met his current wife Joan, having two other children Gazza and PJ. He then lived in Helston with them and retired from the navy with an ankle injury. My dad and his wife then owned a pub together in Helston called The Red Lion.
Four years ago my dad, his wife and my two brothers moved back up to blackburn, which meant that we could spend time together as it was hard to do this as they lived in Helston - Cornwall.
Being a true blackburner he supported blackburn rovers no matter what and was a huge fan, having all the shirts.
My dad sadly has passed on and leaves behind his wife Joan and his four children, Guy Chris, me, Gazza and PJ. His mother and father Joan and Arthur, 3 brothers Glynn, Garry and Gavin and sister Gail. Also many neices and nephews. He will always be sadly missed, but i am just grateful that all the family was able to say their own good byes to him, as their isnt many people who have their chance to do that, also that he isnt in any pain anymore and is in a better place.
God only takes the best which he has done with you Dad...and even though you are so very far you wil always be so very near..
Loved and missed by all who knew him xx
Love and miss you always xx
