In November We told how a farmer who lost his best friend, sister and dog in the space of a year and took on mammoth charity challenge in their honour.
Leo Deen was struggling to come to terms with recent family bereavements, and decided to walk a huge trek from Congleton, in Cheshire, to Glasgow, Scotland while pushing a garden wheelbarrow.
The 57-year-old was devastated when his best friend, Joey Henshaw, passed away in January, which was followed by the death of his border collie, Rollo, just weeks later.
The farmer said: “Joey was like a brother to me and it was really upsetting when he passed away. Then Rollo died a few weeks later. Rollo was my best soul mate, he was as sweet as a nut.”
The white and tan collie lived with Leo on his Timbersbrook farm for three years, but began rapidly losing weight when he was diagnosed with cancer, dying just weeks later.
But when Leo’s sister, Lea Wright, died five weeks ago, he needed to do something to take his mind off the losses he’d endured over the last year.
He said: “I didn’t believe that Lea died – she was only 18 months older than me.
“I needed to get closure, and even though I’d seen the coffin I didn’t believe she was dead. I needed something to do so I decided I was going to walk to Glasgow.”
