Bill's Lowe's funeral service was held today, at Altrincham Crematorium, Dunham Massey.
Club members that attended reported it went as well as it could have given the circumstances and a notable landmark was reached in Bill's memory with £170 in donations collected for the Christopher Tickle fund, which marvellously takes the fund for research into spinal injuries over its £20,000 target by £2.00.
Sadly, the planned gathering at Eccles RFC afterwards was cancelled in line with the family's wishes.
Rest assured we’ll arrange something appropriate to mark Bill's passing and raise a glass with his family at the club in the future.
