This site is dedicated to Chris Arkwright. A truly inspirational man who will never be forgotten.
Chris was an amazing husband, Father, Grandad, Father-in-Law anyone could ever wish for. He is deeply missed and there will not be a single moment go by where we don't think of him.
A lover of books and avid follower of the work of Eric Gill. A typographer, book binder and a fastidious organiser of everything! Along with my Mum they set up Homeless in Blackpool Charity and Vincent House for the homeless.
Trinity Hospice provided a wonderful service to both my parents. For that we are extremely grateful and would like to ensure that their work is supported in the future.
It is difficult to put into words how much this amazing man is missed. A piece of our hearts will be gone forever leaving a massive void in our lives. He will be remembered with the fondest of thoughts and will forever remain with us in spirit.
Dad I love you so much you were such a special person to so many people.

Do you know how amazing you were Dad? I speak to people often about you. How wonderful you were. You were such an incredible Dad and the best role model anyone could ever wish for. My Barbie hobby has actually brought back so many memories of my childhood and hours spent with you. The loft play room you created for me and the time we spent visiting the doll house shop together. All of the things you made for me out of wood. I love you so much Dad and I will never stop missing you. You were gone too soon. A piece of my heart is missing until I see you again in Heaven xxxx

We miss you so much Dad. Not a day goes by when we don’t think of you. I hope you are enjoying all of my Barbie antics from heaven 😆 Something to keep you amused I’m sure!

I've done so well for so long ... to not get too upset. I came onto your memorial page tonight after a picture popped up on my Facebook feed from our Bingo Night ... your last night .... and I'm in tears. I miss you so so much Dad. It's still not fair. If I'd have known it would have been your last night I would have said so much more than just goodbye. Life is so shit sometimes. It really is. There's so much I want to talk to you about. I still do in my head but it's just not the same. I hope at least now you aren't in any pain and are enjoying catching up with everyone including Catherine's Dad now. I love you so so much. Clare xxxx
