Family of young Craigavon dad who died earlier this year raise money for PIPS Hope and Support

Jonathan Roberts family from Craigavon

The family of a Co Armagh father-of-five, who died suddenly earlier this year, have raised almost £1,000 in his memory.

Jonathan Roberts’ passing in February sent shockwaves across the north Armagh community following, what was at the time, a large-scale search after he was reported missing.

Sadly, that search operation ended in tragedy.

The 37-year-old Craigavon man was engaged to be married to his fiancé Catherine. He was a loving daddy to Cohen, Chloe, Jay, Kaden and Aria.

Following his passing, Jonathan’s family wanted to do something in his memory.

Recently, they presented a cheque for £887 to Brian Hyland from PIPS Hope and Support.

The fantastic tally was raised through online donations organised by family and friends.

Pictured presenting the cheque are, from left to right, James Doran Jnr, Kaden Roberts, Naomi Roberts, Alicia Roberts, Chloe Roberts, Dillan Roberts and Aria Roberts, and Brian Hyland.
