Good Bye Russell Moore R.I.P.
at 07:46 11 Dec 2013

Today in Saint Andrews Church in the village of Cobham Surrey, we said goodbye to our 'Brother in Hoops' Russell Moore. Russell was sadly admitted into hospital at the start of November, due to a pneumonia rated illness from which he never recovered.
Russell was 52 years young, a massive part of his life was his love for QPR, he proudly followed The R's home and away for the best part of four decades.
I've been to many funerals over the past 20 years, each one is a sad occasion in it's own right, but I have to say..... I've never ever seen a coffin made up of Blue and White Hoops, with the club crest on all four sides.... Russell's coffin was just that.!

Adorned in QPR scarfs, a QPR shirt and a QPR teddy bear, Russell was brought into church at exactly 1.45pm to the sound of 'Pig-Bag' bellowing out of the church speakers. There followed a very dignified service which was attended by over 200 people, that itself was a reflection of the love people had for Russell. His other love was for Cobham Town FC, of which he was a groundsman, a job he did for free.
Many QPR supporters swelled the number in church, to pay respects to one of our own, a big man, a gentle giant who we will all dearly miss at Loftus Road.

Russell held his last job for 36 years, sadly he was made redundant about two years ago. He struggled to find permanent employment elsewhere, so he gave his spare time to helping the 'Royal British Legion' in Cobham. Even though Russell's financial position was untenable, he still came to Loftus Road every week.!
No one knew that Russell couldn't afford a match day ticket, he would sit on the wall in South Africa Road near the chap who sells QPR badges, just to savior the pre-match atmosphere and to talk to Rangers fans as they went into the ground. Then after the match was over, you'd see Russell walking around, just like many of us do, enjoying the post match chat as many of us do...!

Russell was too proud too ask for help, but would travel up the A3, over 20 miles, to be at every QPR home game, as he was indeed proud to be part of the Rangers family, a truly remarkable man, and a man we won't forget. The QPR LSA along with the Inde R's, raised over £700 last Saturday at the QPR v Blackburn game which was given to Russell's Father today.... It's a crying shame we didn't know of Russel's financial circumstances, so that we at The LSA could have got him a season ticket too see his beloved QPR, instead of sitting on the wall each week outside the South Africa Road Stand.

God bless you Russell, our 'Brother in Hoops'..! RIP.... Amen. From Joe Hylton
