Old guy that lived opposite my daughter has died, he was found this evening by his son, he was 84 so he had a good innings, he lost his wife six years ago & just wanted to join her, the son visited everyday & employed a gardener to come round twice a week, the tragedy is up until his wife died Vince was an active member of a very good street community, he would always stop for a chat, when his wife died he never came out of his house & stopped answering the door to neighbours, six years never leaving his house he must have felt so desperate & lost despite daily visits from his son.
