It was with much sadness that I learned of the death of my old friend Granville Hall who passed away late last week after a short illness.
Affectionately known as “Stately Homes”, Granville was a lifelong Ulster supporter and a real friend of this site having attended our first ever Awards Night back in 2005 and his input to the Awards Night in subsequent years helped turn it into the event it is now.
A regular tourist with Ulster, “Stately” enjoyed recent trips to Biarritz, Galway and Bath and was a popular figure in the Scoop Bar at Ravenhill, events, which I’m glad to say, are captured in our Galleries along with many other happy memories of the old rogue!
He’ll be much missed by the friends he’s left behind.
Granville’s funeral takes place on Wednesday 9th February at 12:30pm, Rosemary Presbyterian Church, North Circular Road, Belfast followed by a service at Roselawn Cemetery at 2:00pm.
