It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of George Wilkinson, aged 88 years, who passed away on 30th March 2026.
George was a devoted husband to his beloved late wife Renee, and a proud, supportive dad to Peter, Louise and Stuart. He was a much-loved father-in-law to Sally, Bernard and Trish, a fun-loving and cheeky grandad to Kirsty, Nicola, Toni, Joshua and Thomas, and a proud great-grandad to his five great-grandchildren, who brought him so much joy.
George was a truly sociable soul who never missed the chance for a pint and a good chat with friends. He had a wonderful way with people and could strike up a conversation with anyone, always leaving them smiling. His garden was his pride and joy, and he spent many happy hours tending to it with care and dedication. No matter the day, George was never without a smile, and his warmth and humour will be remembered by all who knew him.
Above all, George was a family man. He loved nothing more than being surrounded by those closest to him, sharing stories, laughter and special moments that will now be treasured forever.
He will be deeply missed, but fondly remembered with love and smiles by everyone whose lives he touched.

A good friend to many, Colin will be remembered for his loyalty, warmth, and straight-talking nature. He had a special love for his wagon, which was more than just a job — it was part of who he was.

Anthony “Tony” Parkinson, aged 57 years, passed away surrounded by the love of his family.
Tony was the beloved husband and best friend of Angela, a cherished and proud dad to Chloe, Mani, Max, Charlotte and Alicia, and a devoted “Pop Pops” to Theo, Luca and Arabella. He was a much loved brother, uncle, cousin and a dear friend to many whose lives were brighter for knowing him.
Above all else, Tony’s world was his family. He took great joy in every moment spent together, whether it was sharing laughter at home or cheering from the sidelines. He had a true love of rugby, especially watching Max play — a source of immense pride. He also had a deep love of music and enjoyed the simple pleasure of good company, good conversation, and a glass of his favourite whiskey.
Tony will be remembered for his warmth, loyalty, humour and the unwavering love he gave so freely. His presence filled a room, and his absence will be deeply felt by all who knew him.
The funeral service will be held at Oakworth Crematorium, Wide Ln, Oakworth, BD22 0RJ on Thursday 5th March at 11:30am.
Family and friends are warmly invited to continue sharing memories and raise a glass — perhaps of Tony’s favourite whiskey — at Cullingworth Conservative Club, 21-23 Station Rd, Cullingworth, Bradford BD13 5HN.
The family kindly asks that, in honour of Tony, those attending wear a splash of yellow.
Forever loved, forever missed.
