Simon Carey – Sad News

Sad news
We are sad to inform the readers of AudlemOnline that Simon Carey aged 62, passed away peacefully last Wednesday after a long illness.

Simon was well known to the village in recent years for being the Head Butcher at Oxtail & Trotter. He was a gentle, caring man with a great sense of humour who will be sorely missed by many. Simon was truly dedicated to his chosen career as a Butcher. Having practiced his trade for over forty years, this dedication was obvious to anyone who saw his amazing meat displays and exceptional knife skills on the block.

Simon's passion for his trade is one of the main reasons that Audlem still has a butchers shop, without him Oxtail & Trotter would not have been possible.

His funeral will be held at St James, Audlem on Wednesday 23rd August at 1.30pm, and afterwards at The Bridge Inn. Donations will be to Audlem Medical Practice and District Nurses.
