Joe Presland

At peace on 14 August 2025, aged 30 years.

It's with great sadness that we are sharing the news that Joe Dean (Presland) passed on the 14th August. 

Our hearts are broken and we will miss him more than words can say.

Anyone who knew this wonderful human is more than welcome to attend his funeral and wake. 

We are hoping to make the day as fun and lovely as he was. 

His funeral will take place at Huntingdon Crematorium on Wednesday 10th September at 2:30pm. 

The Wake will be at St Neots Rugby Club from at 3:30pm onwards.

Dress code - we'd like people to be in green, anything Dino or Reptile related, but mainly whatever reminds you of Joe.

Joe only taught me for one term at ABC but in that time his support and encouragement showed me what I was capable of and gave me so much more confidence. I will always remember him for that.

He climbed each tree to its very height. Where many others would have taken fright. Up trees he would never stop. Until he reached the very top. Many called him 'Climber Joe.' And up any tree he would willingly go. To me he was known as 'Animal Boy.' Because handling wild creatures gave him joy. While now the man has gone, His memory still lives on. In wildflowers, trees, and hedges he has planted. And the lives he has positively touched must not be taken for granted. Farewell Joe, no longer a need to belay, I wish you peace upon your way.
