A “FIT and healthy” Royal Mail worker, who had been “loved by everyone” and made “everything fun” was found dead at his home in Plymouth last year after collapsing likely due to an undiagnosed heart condition, an inquest has heard.
Barry George Thomas Thorne, 36, described as a “ray of light” by his family had told a close friend just a week before his untimely death that he was the “happiest he had ever been”, the inquest was told.
His mother, Kimberley Bunnell, said Barry, who lived on Alexandra Road, Mutley, brought “light, and fun and laughter into every situation” after an inquest concluded into his death.
But questions remained unanswered after his body was found in his bathroom on August 7, 2021.
