Bobby was a talented student and sports player
Tributes have been paid to a "passionate and brave" schoolboy who became unwell before he was due to play a cricket match.
In desperation, his mum Cheryl took him to Alder Hey where specialists found a small tumour was blocking his spinal cord. The buildup of fluid in this brain was causing his symptoms. He had two other tumours including one that was causing him back pain. "A talented all-rounder, Bobby’s cricket reflected his personality – passionate, brave and with a boundless energy. A dynamic batter and accurate swing bowler, Bobby also took the gloves on occasion for Cheshire, following in the footsteps of his father Ian, who kept wicket for the county with distinction at both youth and senior level."
Yesterday, a group of boys in the same school year as Bobby dusted off their trainers in tribute to Bobby. Will, Sean, Ben, Ryan, Ashton and Jack ran around 12 miles from Wade Deacon High School to Liverpool Football Club.
