On behalf of all our family we would like to thank everyone from the bottom of our hearts, for the overwhelming support, messages, tributes and kind words for our father, grandfather and great grandfather (Bruce Bickerdike).

It was overwhelming and heart warming to see so many people at the church and the wake on Thursday paying their respects.

Thank you for all of your donations for the Rotherham Hospice, in memory of our father Bruce, the donations are still coming in.

We will announce the final total donated in the next couple of weeks.

Be happy and live your life to the fullest as our dad did.

Many thanks

Bruce's family
