A widower has been left distraught after a mural he set up for his wife who tragically died in his arms was destroyed by a vandal.
Bernard Bailey, aged 76, and wife Ruth, 65, lived in their home together for 37 years and are well-known to the local community.
Ruth sadly passed away in August 2020, ten days after suffering a cardiac arrest at home, in Manchester, in Bernard's arms, leaving behind four children, Bernard, Dylan, Janine and Jordane, as reported by Manchester Evening News.
