Thomas Holte
Vital Football Legend
My sincere condolences to Lew, JW1985, and Keira.
I always find watching that Holteenders in The Sky video rather sad each year but I have to watch it as it's like paying respect to them and the families......But man, it never gets any easier seeing some of those babies and young people.
Please may I also mention my younger brother Ken who sadly died in January 2021. We said our goodbyes to him at the Sacred Heart Church Aston.
As you'd expect with our family house so close to Villa Park Ken was a big Villa fan.
Ken later in his life became a Rastafarian and at the end of the service I never, ever thought I'd hear Redemption Song by Bob Marley loudly reverberating around the walls of the Catholic Church!
Ken would be proud for sure.
