THE daughter of Eddie Farwell, co-founder of Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW), told his memorial service last week that seeing so much appreciation of him gave her ‘comfort’
Eddie, 73, died in March after being diagnosed with motor neurone disease.
A memorial service was held at Exeter Cathedral on Tuesday, June 17, and hundreds of people attended.
A charity spokesperson said that was a testament to the impact Eddie had on so many, as well as the legacy he leaves behind.
Among those attending were former colleagues, families who had been supported by CHSW, as well as those from the wider South West community and representatives from across the UK charity sector.
For those who were not able to attend the service in person, a live stream was available, ensuring that everyone could pay their respects and celebrate all that Eddie achieved.
