Jim Moy, 89, died of coronavirus in Diana, Princess of Wales Hospital on Saturday. He had been admitted a week earlier after experiencing breathing difficulties.

Jim’s son, Michel, 65, a former oil industry engineer, told Grimsby Live : “It is heartbreaking, particularly for mum, as she wanted to be with him in hospital.

“What cracks us up is we could not say goodbye.”

The devastated family described how they were informed that former Nunsthorpe and Humberston councillor Mr Moy only had a few minutes to live, but they were unable to get through to him for a last goodbye.

The last memory they have of Mr Moy is him saying “I’m not too bad” when asked how he was via video chat on the morning of the same day he died.
