Today we gathered at the beautiful St Thomas Church ,Stanhope in the heart of the Wear Valley to pay our last respects to Billy.The church was totally full with many standing and some outside unable to get in.
The Revd Heather Ross conducted the service and the Eulogy was brilliantly given by Billy’s brother Frank which received a spontaneous round of applause when he had finished, after the service Billy was finally laid to rest in Crosshill Cemetery,Stanhope in a family plot next to his parents
