I'm from Trevor's Salvation Army days, where his abilities shone even then, becoming the bandmaster and songster leader at a young age. I remember changing band practice night when Trevor started night class, and before that, I remember seeing him in overalls in a fish and chip shop in Water Street, getting his dinner, when he was an apprentice plumber at A T Walker, probably when he was about 16 or so. Being 7 years younger, I grew up with a fondness for him and for his sister, Marilyn, who also played in the band. Then along came Milne and Heather to add to the circle. I hold them all very dear. Trevor once sang a solo, "I'm a soldier bound for glory, I'm a soldier going home." There now, my brother.

We've only just learnt the devastating news of Trevor's passing,
I first met Trevor in the Goat's gate many years ago and we would share a joke across the few tables in the old snug on a Friday evening. He was a great storyteller and he would always find the humour in things. He would even laugh at himself.
When he found out what Carolyn did for a living he started to use her business, more to support her than for any advantage for himself, and when she was diagnosed with Cancer he sent flowers and encouraging words.
I can honestly say that I've never met anyone who was so genuinely caring and attentive as Trevor. His warmth made everyone feel special
Our condolences to all of the family xx

My Dear Godfather and Uncle T
I never in a million years thought Id be writing a message for you today; you have been there and guided me through my entire life over and beyond the call of duty and with so much unconditional love and care. I miss you terribly and always will but goodbye I dont have to say because you will forever in my thoughts, memories and prayers and with all my heart. We shared so many times together in work, leisure and family, the list of my fond memories of you is endless. We had work and leisure trips away both home and abroad, the Finland trip being such a memorable time with the experiences we shared. The times on the golf courses we have played for hours and hours I remember every one, tears of laughter and frustration, joy of our joint victories together and good company golf with our friends and family, not forgetting our reminiscing of the game in the 19th hole and also that of the funny stories you told, sometimes repeated as you know but always the same fun and laughter listening to your recollections. We always enjoyed our Godfather and Godson catch ups in the pub, the Goats Gate, The Eagle, The Hare & Hounds, The Old Cross, a theme of Joseph Holts appears to be re-occurring as I write! I know you will be smiling as I write as am I but with tears of sadness too.
Goodbye for now my Godfather and Uncle T and only for now.
Love forever, Godson JP x

Uncle, I still can't believe I am writing a tribute because of your passing. Words cannot describe this difficult moment, but as this is the last time I get to say goodbye I do so in the knowledge that I was blessed to have known such a warm loving and caring man. Love, thoughts and prayers go out to Auntie Heather and family.
May God bless you Uncle Trev from Simon, Caroline and Ella.

Our condolences to Trevor's family. We worked with Trevor many years ago when he was a Lecturer in Civils at Salford Uni. He was such a lovely man, always appreciative of the work we did for him and made our day with his ready smile, his laugh and his easy going personality. RIP Trevor, you will be missed.
