His family have today issued a photograph and tribute to Mr Duffy:
Robert was a gentle giant, he had a heart of gold and he’d go out of his way to help others. He enjoyed watching his beloved Liverpool FC.
He’ll be missed by so many, life will never be the same again our jigsaw will always be missing a piece.
A much loved Husband, father, son, brother and friend has been taken from us far too soon. The house feels so quiet and empty without you here with us.
