Mr Roger Drew

Roger Alan Drew

19th June 1947 – 13th December 2024

Beloved husband, father and brother

Roger was a dedicated vet, a committed gardener, and a busy beekeeper. He was a proud member of Round Table and 41 Club and a dab hand on the barbecue.

He loved his labradors, grandchildren and all other animals. His sense of humour, questionable as it was, never failed him and he was always ready to extend his hospitality to friends and family.

The charities chosen to receive donations in his memory reflect his commitment to helping those less fortunate than him.
