Funeral details of Southport stabbing victim Bebe King announced

The family of Bebe have asked us to inform the community about the upcoming celebration of life for their beautiful daughter, which will take place at 11:00am on Saturday 17th August at St Cuthbert’s Church.
As you will understand, Bebe’s family wish for the occasion to be a special and private opportunity for those who knew Bebe best to honour her life in the comfort of privacy and without intrusion. Any invited attendees are free to wear whatever they’re comfortable in but bright clothing is preferred.

To this end, we politely ask that the area immediately surrounding St Cuthbert’s church be avoided for the morning of the funeral.

The funeral procession will be able to be observed for anyone wishing to pay their respects from Preston New Road (beginning from North Road) at 10:20am up to Cambridge Road (adjacent to Denmark Road) at approximately 10:45 and we would ask that from this point the family are left in peace. We invite those not in attendance at the service to think of Bebe’s family and perhaps light a candle at 11:00am to keep them in your minds.

Family flowers only please but donations in lieu of flowers are being gratefully received for the Snowdrop Bereavement Team at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital who have given the family such amazing support in this difficult time. All enquiries to David or Wendy at Massam and Marshall Independent Funeral Directors, 137-139 Manchester Road, Southport, PR9 9BD Telephone: 01704 549222 Email: [email protected]

Donations for the family’s nominated charity may be passed into the Southport branch from Monday 12th- Friday 16th August should anyone wish to do so.
