From Graham Raeburn:

I can confirm the arrangements for Dad's funeral for circulating.

Funeral service at St Oswalds Church, Bollington Road, Bollington, SK10 5EG at 2pm on Monday 30th October followed by a private cremation at Macclesfield Crematorium and light refreshments at the Cock and Pheasant Pub, Bollington.

Any donations made will be collected for East Cheshire Hospice at Home - https://www.eastcheshirehospice.org.uk/hospiceathome - who provided Dad with excellent care and support at home in his final weeks.
