Liverpool Daily Post, 12 Nov 2004
Funeral date for Hughes announced

THE funeral of Emlyn Hughes is to take place in Sheffield Cathedral at noon
next Wednesday, November, 17.

The Dean of Sheffield, the Very Revd Peter Bradle, will lead the service
and everyone is welcome at what will be a thanksgiving for his life.

It is understood Liverpool chairman David Moores and chief executive Rick
Parry will lead those representing the club, along with many of Hughes'
former Liverpool colleagues.

In place of flowers, mourners are asked being to make a donation to the
Emlyn Hughes Cancer Appeal at Weston Park Hospital. Donations should be
sent to John Heath and Sons, 2-16 Earsham Street, S4 7LS.

The Dean of Sheffield commented, "Our thoughts and prayers are with Emlyn's
wife Barbara, and his two children Emma and Emlyn Junior."

" He was a much-loved figure throughout the country, in particular in the
City of Liverpool.

"After retiring, he came to Sheffield and received the same adoration - for
his boundless enthusiasm and the way he helped the people of South
Yorkshire with his tireless charitable work.

"We are honoured to be holding this service in Sheffield Cathedral," he added.

The service will include Emlyn's favourite hymns and a tribute from a
fellow former Liverpool player.

A book of condolence is available in the cathedral.
