His son Joe, 29, is honoring his memory by running a grueling 47-kilometer ultramarathon this Sunday, from Leicestershire County Cricket Club to Trent Bridge, a route steeped in father-son memories. Joe, who cherished moments like watching Leicester City win the Premier League despite their football rivalry, is also raising over £2,000 for LOROS hospice, the place that cared for his dad in his final days. This run is more than a challenge—it’s a tribute to a man who faced death with courage and a legacy of love. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
