Sadly the World will be a quieter place without you. Although you tried to be the 'grumpy uncle' with your exasperated scowl, the thought and effort you put into us all demonstrated that you were always really a big softie at heart. In your inevitable style you were full of life (and opinions!) to the very end.

Jeremy, I thoroughly enjoyed our chats when walking the estate and our occasional cup of tea and cookie!

Jeremy with his brothers and sisters. Such a close knit family xx

Jeremy with his brothers and sisters. Such a close knit family xx

Such a handsome young man! And always great fun!

A group of handsome and happy ushers! Xx

Always surrounded by nephews and nieces clamouring for his attention and to play! Xx

Uncle Jeremy and Uncle Julian seemed inseparable - and usually with a beer in hand! Xx

Worked his socks off for our family parties and was definitely in charge of the BBQ! Here he in full chef regalia so we know who is boss!

Uncle Jeremy and Auntie Judy had a lovely relationship. Neither took the other seriously and they teased each other mercilessly! Xx

Uncle Jeremy could scowl at us (!) but it was all show! He had a heart of gold and loved us all really! Xx

Uncle Jeremy was a truly loving, attentive and dedicated son. He might grumble at Granny and call her irreverent names (!) but he was always thinking about her and looking out for her xx

Sadhana sent me this photo they had in the office and of course you can’t talk of Uncle Jeremy without including Anne! They were perfect for each other with their loyal, successful and long lasting marriage - my heart goes out to you, Anne xxx

A picture from the Board Room - Robert Hobbs and his three sons, we miss them all ♥️

From the Board Room - a much loved portrait of Uncle Jeremy. It captures him perfectly: in his element and on his patch at Backwell House.

Always a cheeky smile even when catering for the masses!

Master of the Bain Marie at the family BBQ’s.

The most dapper of dressers, with his beloved Clicquot.

You can just hear that mock growl ‘wretched child’ while being the pivot of all their attentions!!!

The great entertainer! Always captivating and entertaining his great nieces and nephews!

And of course, where ever that wonderful, larger than life Uncle of ours was, Auntie Anne was there, whether quietly in the background or at his side, making their memories together.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.

Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland
