'The house feels so quiet and empty without you here with us.'
Robert Duffy died at Aintree Hospital on May 23 2021, three days after falling from some scaffolding on a building on Rice Hey Road, Wallasey. The 45-year-old, a scaffolder for AIM Access Solutions, had been called to the three-storey flat block to make adjustments to some scaffolding which had been put up the previous day, on May 19.
At an inquest last week, coroner Johanna Thompson concluded Mr Duffy died from "a fall from a height due to unsafe working practices", with the cause of death being a brain injury with multi-organ failure, cardiac arrest, and a traumatic upper spinal cord injury, combined with some thickening of the left heart wall due to obesity.
Concluding the inquest, Ms Thompson said: "Robert Duffy fell from scaffold on May 20, 2021, causing traumatic injuries, at Rice Hey Road, Wallasey. He was taken to Aintree Hospital for further medical assessment. On May 23, 2021, he died, succumbing to his injuries, at Aintree Hospital."
