We are trying to help our friend raise funds to pay for her children's father's funeral costs. Phillip Riach aged 43 years a gentle loud soul and a friend to many died suddenly at home a week before Christmas. Phil left behind 2 beautiful children who were his complete life. As no clue to any ill health, no funeral plans or insurance's were made to cover this in the event of his death. Our friend is struggling to provide full funds to make sure the children see their father sent off properly. He adored his children they were his life and he has left his legacy for his children.

This is not been easy, Phil was a proud man and so is mum Emma but the modern world we live in today we believe that there are many friends out there just like us who completely feel helpless at this very sad time who can somehow help. We can make a change and we can make this happen for abbie and jk & mum emma.

We are asking all who knew phil to make a contribution of any kind as every little helps to make this day possible.

phils funeral will take place on friday the 12th of January at Dewsbury crematorium and it will be a celebration of his life afterwards at Priestleys bar in Birstall.

A funeral is not a lifetime in a day it is a lifetime in a day and we have lots of plans to make this as joyful and happy as phil was and so his children will have a good memory of their last goodbyes.
