A dad who was the "glue" of the family called his loved ones just hours before he died.
Gary Porter left for work as a HGV driver at 4am and called his wife Lyndsey "like clockwork" at 7am. Often calling every few hours, but on December 14, their 10am phone call never arrived, prompting concern from his family.
Just a short time later, wife Lyndsey received a phone call to say her husband had been rushed to hospital in Cambridgeshire after "slipping at work". But tragically, the 47-year-old, from St Helens, died at the scene from a stomach aneurysm that stopped his heart on December 14.
