Beloved Leeds Rhinos and England rugby star Rob Burrow passed away on June 2 at age 41 after a brave battle with motor neurone disease (MND). Hundreds lined the streets in tribute, with fans wearing Leeds Rhinos shirts turning the roads blue.
A civil reception at Leeds Civic Hall honored his life, attended by family, teammates, and city leaders. Burrow’s funeral cortege paused at Featherstone Lions’ ground, where he began his rugby journey.
