Paul Elliott Funeral Details
It is with great sadness that we have learned that Paul Elliott lost his long and tough battle with cancer. Paul was a great supporter of our sport and was a much loved commentator and controller at many events the length and breadth of the country. Paul also held the unenviable role of Fixtures Coordinator for a number of years at BE, a task he took on with much skill and flair.
Paul’s funeral will take place at 10.30hrs on Monday 6 February at ‘Our Lady of Victories’ Church, Halam Road, Southwell, Nottighamshire NG25 0AD
The family will then leave for a private committal at Sherwood Crematorium and this will be followed by a celebration of Paul’s life at Mansfield Rugby Club where everybody is welcome to attend.
Please do not send flowers – however all donations should be made to the Sir John Eastwood Hospice and will be gratefully received.
Close friend and Controller colleague Henry Symington has provided the following tribute.
