A FAMILY fun day is being held at a Colley Gate pub on Sunday (May 29) in memory of a much-loved father of four who died of cancer aged 45.
Hundreds of balloons were let off during the wake at the Round of Beef for Lee Crumpton nicknamed Shrinks, and publicans James Andrews and Dean Worton were inspired to hold a fundraiser for Macmillan Cancer Support.
Mr Andrews said everyone was shocked by his illness, and his death on April 22 had “left the community in heartache”.
He added: “He was the life and soul of the community, a much loved and respected man.”
The fun day, from 1pm, will include donkey and fairground rides, entertainment from singer Sammy Jo, and a barbeque.
