Story

Hello,

Thank you for clicking our link. We will be running the Oxford Half Marathon 2025 in memory of Richard Probets.

Sobell House played a crucial role in helping our family through incredibly difficult times. As a family, we wish we could have had more time with him.

Near the end of his days, Sobell House helped move Richard to the comfortable hospice where we could say our final goodbyes.

He was a massive Manchester United fan, so at his funeral, all 14 grandkids wore Man United tops to show our respect.

Sobell House made him comfortable, allowing him to leave us peacefully on July 12th, 2023.

Without donations, Sobell House couldn’t help families like ours. Any support is greatly appreciated.

THANK YOU

Love you lots, Richard. We miss you every day xxx
