A man who killed himself just days after his girlfriend's suicide had been tormented by cruel and false rumours. Friends of Craig Daffern said he had been falsely accused of being involved in Jenny Shanley's death and it drove him to suicide.
Jenny died aged just 36 on January 11 last year after taking cocaine. Craig found her in the couple's home in Westby on the Fylde coast, between Blackpool and Preston.
On January 16, the body of 35-year-old skilled gardener was then found near a telephone exchange building in School Lane in Catforth. He had texted a friend saying, "I've had enough but I love you all".
