Tracey, Lee, Owen and Rhys would like to thank J Stamp & Sons, Chris and David Stamp for their upmost professionalism and sensitivity. Mon Amie, Louise and Julie, for the most amazing floral tributes from the family and friends. Reverend Ludger Fremmer for a beautiful, fitting service at St Wilfrid’s Church, for our gorgeous boy.

Finally, to those that chose to have their ‘daily walk’ outside the church on the 9 March. Your faces were unfortunately a blur through our tears; but we’d like to thank you all so very much for coming to pay your last respects. It was amazing to see so many people; Ellis would be truly overwhelmed.
