It is with great regret that we have been advised of the death of our dear friend and comrade Michael Wroe. As many of us know, Mick and Claire lost their son Tom in Afghanistan some years ago. Since then they have spent an enormous effort raising funds through walking and football arrangements.
The funeral service will take place, at 14:00hrs, on Friday 7th March 2025 as follows:-
St Bartholomew’s church
Green Ends Road
Meltham
Huddersfield
HD95NW
A Private family burial will follow at 3.30pm at:-
Helme Christ church
Meltham
HD95RW
The wake will be held at:-
Meltham Liberal Club
17 Wessenden Head Road
Meltham
HD94ET
The family have requested Standard Bearers and buglers to play Last Post. Also as Mick was a keen ‘biker’ the family would like, if possible, some bikers to act as outriders for the courtege.
Dress for the funeral, where possible, is Regimental blazer, Regimental tie, Medals and if possible berets.
