Today has been very difficult .... I am really sad to announce that William Cooksey, my dear friend and walking companion at this years Great North Run passed away in the early hours of this morning.
Bill suffered a fall at home yesterday and despite our NHS best efforts Bill slipped away...
It was an absolute honour to train and walk the half marathon with Bill.. a Legend and remarkable gentleman who I have had the privilege to know since 1995...
We will remember his determination, zest for the great outdoors and his continued fundraising for our NHS.
You are truly inspirational - we will miss you. Sleep tight Bill ❤
Everyone
