Heartbroken family pay tribute to tragic dad who died 17 days after his stepson

A man who died just 17 days after his stepson has been described as an 'absolute diamond.'

Pharmacy worker, Frank Ebdon, 61, had a cardiac arrest at his home in South Shields on Friday, April 28, and leaves behind his wife Angie, daughter Jackieline, three grandchildren and five step-grandchildren. Frank had a twin sister, Carol, and four more siblings, Hazel, Susan, John and David, reports Chronicle Live.

His death comes just 17 days after his stepson Andrew Brady died, meaning his wife and stepdaughter are now facing the prospect of having to organise two funerals in such a short space of time.
