The family of Terry Gilbert, who dedicated his life to making Weston a better place, have paid tribute to their ‘hero’ who has inspired them to continue his legacy of fundraising.
Terry died on July 22, aged 75, after a short battle with cancer. Terry was involved with a number of community groups in the town - helping to organise big events in Weston and raising money for numerous charities.
He is survived by his wife Rose, and their three children, Julie, Suzanne and Jonathan, who have been overwhelmed by the support they’ve received since his death. They said: “As a family, it has been incredible the support we have received. The cards are in their hundreds, which just confirmed how amazing our father was.
