The death of Owen Browell has prompted an outpouring of grief from his heartbroken family and friends
Tributes have been paid to a 'cherished and fun-loving' dad who died last week after showing extraordinary strength following a terrible diagnosis. Owen Browell, 41, found out he had glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer, in February last year. He died on January 2, having lived to see a final family Christmas with his wife Lindsey and two young daughters, Ava and Freya. Owen, a former pupil at Calday Grange Grammar School, was originally from Greasby in Wirral .
According to David, Owen rallied and went through a major operation to remove as much of the tumour as possible. Unfortunately, doctors discovered the cancer had spread, and at this point Owen learned it was at an advanced stage. He underwent several rounds of chemotherapy, but unfortunately the treatment wasn't successful. Despite his illness, Owen continued to go to work, but would bat off suggestions that he was doing anything brave. David says he would 'always play it down'.
