A man who lost his partner of 24 years to cancer has jumped 11,000 feet out of a plane in her memory - despite his own devastating diagnosis.
Tom Lowery, 76, from Irlam, Salford completed the skydive on Sunday (February 19) in memory of his partner Joan Lyons, who received treatment from St Ann's Hospice.
The retied HGV driver and Royal Signals veteran lost Joan in March last year, and has also been diagnosed with prostate cancer himself - for which he is undergoing treatment.
