Today we mourn the loss of a true sporting icon, Sir Billy Boston, who has passed away surrounded by his family.
Rugby League’s first knight, a Wigan legend, and "Everybody's Hero," his legacy on and off the field will endure for eternity.
Rest in peace, Sir Billy. 🍒⚪️

Yesterday I visited the real victim in my case Phillip Saunders and stood at his graveside and placed flowers on his grave I am even more determined now to find out who killed him. Justice must be done for him and his family. No Justice No Peace.
