* While trying to come to terms with this tragic event, her husband, Keith, sought solace by going back to the spot from which she had jumped.
*It was whilst visiting the cliff top that he saw a woman about to throw herself over the edge – Keith took the time to persuade her not to do it.
*From this moment onwards Keith made it his mission to patrol the area in the hope of saving lives.

*Dedicated and determined, Keith tells of his own personal despair and how, in his darkest hour, he wanted to end it all, but found a sense of purpose in helping those in desperate need.
*Keith also divulges why after much reluctance he has been forced to give up his vigil.
