Malcolm, whilst working in Nottingham, met Valerie on a night out at The Palais. They hit it off and met most weekends and were married in Radford 24th August 1957.

They went on to have three children Karen, Lynne and Dale and lived for 59 years in Arnold until their passing. The children, all married, went on to give them 4 Grandchildren and 4 Great Grandchildren.

Malcolm enjoyed playing snooker and loved horses. Valerie was a good homemaker and they remained married for 66 years.

They will be remembered for the love and support they gave their children and their grandchildren, they shared good humour and were very well liked by people who were lucky to meet them.

As their children, we remember them for giving us great childhoods, fabulous holidays and Christmases, such lovely memories. Their love and support never waned.

They are both greatly missed, fondly remembered and forever in our hearts.
