Bob Lawton told his boss he was taking five weeks’ long-service leave to give his wife Cathy a trip to Malaysia and China to celebrate her birthday “before she lost her eyesight”.
They were joined by Rodney and Mary Burrows.
Close friends have told how Cathy and Bob – an artistic grandmother and a grandfather who would “give you the shirt off his back” – had one last laugh with them before setting off last Monday.
