Our tribute to Tom Coupe who left us on 29th September 2018. We adored you and will always remember you.

Tom loved being by the sea, from early days of building sandcastles, his favourite walks such as Craster to Dunstanburgh, to a recent visit to see HMS Victory at Portsmouth.

Quite young he had an early ambition to be a trawlerman (slightly odd for a boy from Leeds but prompted by the TV series). For many years, Tom was fascinated by the work of the RNLI and he couldn't believe the service was manned by volunteers and funded by donation.

We can think of no more fitting tribute to our beautiful boy than to help this fantastic service continue saving lives.

Forever by the sea.

With all our love; Mum, Dad and Lucy xxx
