Morecambe grandad's special wedding day surprise for granddaughter
The granddaughter of a Morecambe care home resident got a lovely surprise as she walked down the aisle on her wedding day.
Bob Strickland, who lives at Anchor’s Eric Morecambe House, was originally due to attend the Burnley wedding virtually.
But home manager Stephanie Webster and deputy manager Michelle Watson had other ideas.
They ensured that Bob’s presence was kept a secret until the exact moment his granddaughter Lucywas walking down the aisle. Her dad told her to turn around and there was Bob dressed in his finest attire.
Bob said: “I’m so grateful to both Stephanie and Michelle for making it happen.”
Stephanie added: “It was amazing to be part of such a special family moment and we’re so glad that Bob could be with his granddaughter on her big day.
"A massive congratulations to the happy couple as well!”
Michelle and Stephanie have now been nominated for colleague awards at Anchor.
