A dad with a "generous heart" and "always the first to buy a round of drinks" died suddenly after a short battle with cancer.
Eamonn Gillen, who was born in Knotty Ash and lived in Birkdale before he died, was diagnosed with renal cancer which spread to his pancreas and lungs. The 58-year-old died on Thursday, March 16.
His daughter Grace Gillen said the form of cancer Eamonn had was "very aggressive" and "hard to pick up early".
