In Loving memory of David who passed away on the 25th of February 2022 aged 79 years.

He was much loved and will be sadly missed by all his family and friends.

“We are sad to announce the peaceful passing of our dear dad, David Goodwin, on 25th February 2022.

His career was spent entirely as a solicitor in London and he became the senior partner in the law firm, Druces and Attlee.

He was highly respected by colleagues and clients, alike.

David loved cricket throughout his life, playing for Abingdon school, Berkshire schoolboys and Woking and Horsell.

In later years he developed a passion for golf, joining Sutton Green Golf Club. He made lasting friendships through both sports and could often be found at the cricket club at Sunday lunchtime, enjoying liquid refreshment and banter.

He was a master bridge player too, he couldn’t resist a bit of good competition.
David also volunteered in several capacities

David has three sons, Paul, Keith and Nicholas and six grandchildren, so far.
He is survived also by his loving wife, Celia.

Should you wish to, his family would welcome donations to Cancer Research UK”

A Few Kind Words...

“Dear Jo,

Thanks so much for all you did leading up to the funeral. None of us could have got through it without your support.

Many thanks for everything you did for us, for all your help and for making a very sad day so easy. Your support has been amazing.

A huge thank you. Your dedication made saying farewell to Mum all the more bearable.”

Sue, Vicki, Clare & Richard

“Dear Fran

I just wanted to drop you an email to thank you for all your care and support in the arrangements for my dad, John.

I know that my Mum, Valerie, was most grateful for your support and care, particularly last Friday which was a difficult day for her. Mum said to me that you went over and above in her eyes, making sure she was ok before you would let her leave.

Dad would have highly approved of the day yesterday, and that’s all we could have asked for. It really was the celebration of his life that he would have wanted.

Again, my sincerest thanks and gratitude to you all.”

Helena

Mike

To Lisa and all at Greenwood’s
Thank you for all the care and professionalism you have shown whilst caring for my Dad.
Thanks also for being so wonderful whilst looking after Diane and me, we are so grateful,
you took the pressure away from us during a very stressful time.

Sally and Diane

“I just wanted to drop you a line to say a massive thank you for everything you have done over the last two weeks. When I walked into Alan Greenwood’s on the 5th November I didn’t know where or how I was going to organise my lovely Mum’s funeral and the thought of it horrified me, you made a daunting job so much easier and were there to guide me all the way until the day of the funeral.”

I can’t thank you enough for your kind words, thoughts and help during this very difficult time. Losing someone as precious as mum is very hard but you helped so much. Thank you for everything you have done for mum, myself and my family.”

Sue, Mundy, Luke and Faye

“Thank you for all your kind attention during the funeral of my husband John on the 24th May. The arrangements were so efficiently and sympathetically handled that it lifted a huge burden from my shoulders. I enclose a cheque in favour of the Alzheimer’s Society in memory of my beloved John.”

Catherine Waterman

“We would like to thank you very much for looking after Mum and for all the arrangements you made for her funeral last Thursday. Your professionalism, help and ready advice together with your sensitivity at such a difficult time was much appreciated by us all. Our best regards.”

Nigel, Colin Ian & Coraine Ferguson
