Doting father and partner, Luke Hatherway, died suddenly last month aged 33. He has been described as ‘always being happy’ and ‘when he walked into a room, he brought laughter with him’.

Luke, from Cirencester, was at work on November 10 when he suffered a heart attack. He and his brother worked for the same company, and his brother was by Luke’s side when he passed away. Luke leaves behind his partner and mother to his children, Becca Saunders, 26, and two daughters, Grace, four and Hope, one, who live in Cirencester.

Mum Becca is being supported by sisters and other family members while coming to terms with her family’s loss. Becca’s twin sister Megan Waite, 26 from Fairford said: “Luke suffered a heart attack and it was completely unexpected. He worked with his brother who was by his side when he died.

“It was a complete shock to everyone. It was so hard for my sister to sit Grace down and explain to her what had happened to her Daddy and he was not here anymore.

“Becca says she keeps expecting him to walk in the room or call her. She is struggling to come to terms with it. “I knew Luke for seven years. He was the life and soul, and when he walked in the room he brought laughter and was loud. I never saw him unhappy.”

Luke and Becca had planned to move to Fairford so their girls could grow up nearer their cousins and go to school with them. Due to Luke passing, Becca is needing her family’s support more than ever. (SOURCE)
