A 'fun-loving' grandad was bludgeoned to death by his neighbour in north London just three days before the funeral of his late wife.

A "fun-loving" grandad was bludgeoned to death by his neighbour in north London just three days before the funeral of his late wife.Anthony Rooks, 80, was brutally killed by his neighbour and friend, suffering multiple blunt force traumas to his head and face.

Anthony's daughter, who was staying at her father’s flat, was woken by the sound of him being bludgeoned to death in Thomas' flat. He pleaded guilty to manslaughter by virtue of diminished responsibility at the same court, Wood Green Crown Court, on November 26 2021.In a victim impact statement, Anthony’s granddaughter said: “Little did we know that three days before our nan’s funeral, this horrific tragedy would rock our world and change our lives forever.

“He had so much more to give in his life. His plans to go back to his native homeland of Trinidad was not realised. We did not get to say goodbye, it feels like we are already serving a life sentence as there is nothing that will bring him back or ease the pain of his loss. To say our hearts have been broken would be an understatement. There will always be a hole in our hearts, but we are hoping for some closure so we can try to live somewhat of a normal life.
