We now have the details for dad's celebration of life and some asks to make his send off extra special.
🏍️ Celebrating the life of Bill Hoxworth 12th November 2026, 11:20 Ceremony, Walton Lea, followed by Runcorn Golf Club 🏍️
As we know, dad loved his motorbikes and he really wanted bikes to follow his journey. So we are asking for AS MANY motorbikes as possible to join us in leaving from the corner of Lancaster Ave and Russell Road, Runcorn over to Walton Lea Crematorium. Meeting at 10-10:15 to ensure no one is left behind.
If you are a friend that has a bike please don your leathers and join us, and please 🙏🏼 bring your biker friends with you. Anyone not attending the funeral can then depart once we reach the crematorium. We are wanting a noisy, bike filled arrival there and have pre-warned the crematorium of this!
The more the merrier for this so please share, spread the word and say a prayer for a dry day 🏍️🏍️🏍️
Secondly, although they are not doing so well right now, we would like to give a nod to dad's team on the day; Manchester Utd. Please could we ask everyone to wear a touch of red, whether it be a flower, socks, a tie - just something to bring a bit of brightness to the day 🌹
In terms of flowers we are asking for family flowers only please, with donations on the day to Halton Haven Hospice who made him comfortable and looked after him as their own in his final days, you can also donate here ahead of the day https://visufund.com/remembering-dad-bill-billy-hoxworth
Other than that, dad was hopeful for "a few people to have a drink in his memory" I told him then that I thought we could do much better than that, so please do join us after if you are able to at Runcorn Golf Club to share memories of dad and to celebrate his life and if you can let us know to gauge numbers that would be amazing as dad would be mortified if anyone were to be hungry! 🍻
Once again I want to thank everyone for their kindness this last week and beyond, we look forward to meeting those of you we haven't met and giving dad the best send off possible 🏍️⚽🍺.
Thank you so much for taking the time to donate to Halton Haven Hospice. I know dad would have really appreciated it. He gave time , advice and support to those he needed it and this is our opportunity to give a little back. He will always be remembered for this alongside his love of bikes and Manch
