    Not just sadly missed as a brilliant rugby League player, coach & mentor for up & coming players but sadly missed as a wonderful Husband, Father & Grandfather, Friend and Leader. He was talented, smart, funny & the one everyone could feel safe with. He was the Man who everyone looked up to but always stayed humble and genuine. A Great Man gone too soon.... Love you Dad xx
