  • One year has passed

    I can't believe a year has passed as I still think you'll be in your back room everytime I return to the house- it's so surreal. And then you're not there and I realize yet again I'll never hear your voice or see you smile or hug you any more. It's very painful. I love you and miss you so much, dad.

    I wish you could have been with us at christmas, Dad. We missed you and all the excitement you felt every christmas and the huge sacks of toys for the kids that must have taken you ages to buy and wrap. This was one of your favourite times of the year. You are remembered with so much love and sadness

  • A man who knew how to make the most of life

    Richard Eaves was an inspiring, dynamic and intelligent man who was determined to make the most of life, despite disability in his later years. He was devoted to his wife, Jagdish Eaves, who cared selflessly for him and proud of his children and grandchildren. He loved new technology, travelling, ancient and new cultures, music, chess, fishing and animals. The fastest man on a disability scooter in Coventry is sadly no longer around. We are heartbroken at his loss and hope that he is riding with the fastest angels in the next dimension as he waits for us to join him again.
