A life-long Liverpool FC fan asked his family for one last thing in the moments leading up to his death.

Dad-of-two Paul Morris, 49, from Leeds, had been a Liverpool fan from the "moment he came out the womb."

In a note he left before he sadly took his own life last week he asked his loved ones for a Reds themed funeral and his family have set out to make sure Paul gets his final wish.



Launa Pickles, 28, told the ECHO how Paul died on April 20, following a battle with mental health.

She said: "Something triggered him and he took his own life over the Easter weekend.

He had driven taxis in Leeds for donkey's years and knew so many people."

In a touching tribute Launa said Paul made "such an impact on people" and would "go out of the way for everyone." She said: "He was always doing people favours no bother at all

"He loved to play pool, he was quite into pool competitions.

They had just got him his own custom designed, personal cue - it was his thing from being a young lad."

But Paul's passion lay with Liverpool FC, says Launa.

He was Liverpool through and through.

"He wrote a funeral note just before he passed and he made sure to write that he wanted a custom Liverpool coffin, red and white flowers, you will never walk alone to be played and everyone has to wear Liverpool tops."

The family are fundraising to make Paul's 'final dreams' come true.
