Update about Andrew
30 November 2021
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Andrew John Speir at 9.50pm on Wednesday 24th November 2021 from complications attributing to his diagnoses of stage 4 metastatic Bowel Cancer in late 2019. His family was by his side the whole way. We simply cannot put into words how incredibly missed he will be as a son, brother, uncle, nephew and friend.
We would like to thank everybody for your very generous donations to help fund Andrew's cancer treatment. Because of your kindness, we were able to have 2 incredible years with him. They were filled with moments of difficulty and sadness as we saw Andrew struggle with his illness, although in true Andrew fashion, he never complained. Most importantly, we were able to have time to create cherished memories, including him being able to meet his niece Elliot who he adored so much.
As most of you know, Andrew was a strong advocate for better funding of cancer treatments. He has requested that any money left over from this fund be donated to that cause so that in future, people will not be put in the same position he was.
Once again, thank you.
From
The Speir Family
