Hornchurch FC are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of our club president Del Edkins.

Del was a stalwart within the club undertaking many roles, including physio, coach and the club presidency. His passion for the club was truly remarkable and will be sorely missed by everyone at the Urchins.

Our thoughts are with Del’s family at this sad time.

His funeral will be on Tuesday 10th June at Corbet’s Tey crematorium at 12.30.

Rest in peace Del.
