What a sad loss for our community!! Condolences to the family, he was a great old fashioned gent with a wicked sense of humour. Good Mr Mould rest in peace.
Delightful man. Only recently came to Wincanton and used his service, so very sad to hear of his passing. Rest in Peace Mr Mould. 🌹
Jeff was a very very good friend for the last 20 years, I have learnt so much from him and will endeavour to follow his instructions. He always said that one day” you will turn up and I won’t be here”. This is exactly what happened on November 3rd. I will miss you forever!!!
Thanks for all you have done for me.
