Tributes to dad-of-two and 'family man' who died suddenly in Stapleford street

Tributes have been paid to a dad-of-two who died suddenly while sat on a bench in the street. Roy Anthony, 61, died of a suspected cardiac arrest on Thursday, May 21 near Stapleford Library on Church Street.

Mr Anthony's family say he was well-loved by those in Stapleford after moving there about five years ago. He leaves behind two children, his eldest son Royan Anthony, 18, as well as a 15-year-old daughter Kalsie Anthony.

While his family are still waiting for official confirmation on his cause of death, it is thought he suffered a cardiac arrest near the library. Despite members of the public trying to help and calling the emergency services, he sadly died.
