The funeral service is due to take place on Tuesday 17th February 2026 at The Chapel, Market Street, Clay Cross at 12.00pm followed by burial in Danesmoor Cemetery at 12.50pm.
We are expecting a large attendance for the service and with limited space in the chapel we politely request that anyone who wishes to pay their respects stand at the roadside on Malc’s final Journey.
A route that the Horse Drawn Cortege will take will be published in the coming days, this leaving the chapel service for immediate family and close friends.
At the family’s request could everyone attending the chapel service remain outside allowing Malc to enter the chapel first followed by his immediate family. The service will be followed by a public burial, everyone welcome to attend.
The family would like to welcome everyone back after the service to The George, Clay Cross.
No formal attire , just casual clothes like Malc wanted.
Donations in the memory of Malc will be taken for Ashgate Hospice.
