Very sad news to report
Heartfelt tributes have poured in for Nottingham's 'number one scrap man' as around 30 vans showed up for his funeral. Wayne Newcombe, who was described as a "man who would help anybody", died on April 4 aged 60.
The dad of five was described as a 'happy man' who was keeping his impressive collection of more than a thousand antique items in his home and backyard. His niece, Laura Collins, has spoken of the large funeral at Wilford Hill Crematorium where more than 300 gathered to pay their respects.She said: "It was a really big funeral. Even the funeral directors said they have never seen anything like it.
Mr Newcombe also raised money for cancer charities - and donated toys to children. He was also nicknamed Jack the Lad, his family said. "And it probably was a load of rubbish to people - but he was so passionate about it. He would work seven days a week."
