His daughter Claire Marie Chadderton moved here alone 15 years ago and made Kefalonia her home. She was happy when her dad and family moved over here in 2008 to be together.
The whole family had been coming to Skala many years before and it was all of their dreams to move here which had been their ultimate aim.
