An Edinburgh dad has died “of a broken heart” just weeks after the loss of his beloved wife.
Robert Japp, known as Bob, was devastated when he lost his partner Matilda after she passed away at the end of June. Unfortunately he never got over the loss.
After Matilda was diagnosed with Emphysema COPD in 1989, Bob took over as her full time carer and the pair “never spent a day apart” in the 29 years they were together.
