It's with deep sadness that we report the death of George Darlington. George passed away at 09.30am Thursday 21st January 2010 after a long battle with cancer. Just like the great Geoff Bewley ,George was a stalwart of the Liverpool Century club and the values that he brought to many youngsters over the years is imeasurable. People like George are irreplaceable. Even in his final months the strength of character, fighting spirit and absolute love and passion for cycling kept him going . George you were a great man and will be missed by us all but never forgotten. R.IP.George. Our thoughts go to his wife Wendy, children Peter and Caron.
Funeral arrangements will be posted when known.
