In loving memory of John Helliwell who slipped away after a short battle with cancer on 31st December 2024.
Instead of flowers, wife Alison and children Olivia and James have asked for donations to Prostate Cancer UK or to Kirkwood Hospice where he was due to be cared for.
Please join family and friends for the celebration of John's life at 12.30pm on Monday 3rd February at Huddersfield Crematorium HD2 2JF, and afterwards at The Golden Cock, Farnley Tyas HD4 6AU. Come in what you're comfortable in (although John was always partial to a Goth-cum-steam punk look).
If you plan to be there, please email hellifam@outlook.com - ideally by 20th January.
As the family want to make this a great celebratory send-off for John, they'd be delighted if you'd also email any memories, anecdotes, favourite photos or a song choice that reminds you of him.
