There can have been no more fitting tribute to Elsie than the presence of the proud Astwood and Dale families amongst friends in the sunshine last Saturday afternoon at the game against Ashton on Mersey.
An impeccable minutes silence was observed before the match by both teams followed by applause with Mark and Mike then giving their all in the home colours and Matty likewise guesting for the opposition.
Sue and Louise extend a welcome to all to the funeral next week. The arrangements are as follows: Monday 20th October, 2.30pm at Holy Trinity Church Hoghton Street followed by Committal at the Crematorium.
Any flowers to be sent to Moisters, Sefton Street, Monday morning.
Rest in peace Elsie. With love and fond memories from all your friends at Southport RFC.
