PEACOCK, Frank Bailey. On 19th December 2015 peacefully at Lady Allum Care, aged 101 years. Most loving husband of the late Christine. Much loved father and father in law of Tony and Lois, Jono and Sary, Fran and Barry, treasured "Pop" to Alistair and Lisa, the late Richard, Glyn and Fiona, Daniel and Isabel, Lisa and Oli, Ian and Elle, Neil and Stephanie (USA) and Laura. Great grandfather to Alexandra, Addisen, Matthew, Samantha, Michael, Alana, Reuben, Owen, Sophie, Jonah, Lola, Nico and Suni. You were an inspiration to us all, Pop. How lucky we were to have you. Thank you for your never wavering support, guidance and love for us. You were the pillar of our family. To be born a gentleman is an advantage, to die a gentleman is an achievement.
