Helen, Beloved Member of Thompsons United FC Catering Team, Passes Away Suddenly

Thompsons United FC is mourning the loss of Helen, a cherished member of the club’s catering team, who passed away suddenly on Monday. The news has left the club and wider community in shock, as many supporters had seen and spoken with her only days earlier during Saturday’s match.

Helen was much more than a volunteer in the club kitchen. Alongside Freda and John, she generously gave her time to cook and serve, making the matchday experience warmer and more welcoming for players, fans, and families alike. Her presence was woven into the fabric of Thompsons United, where she was admired not only for her hard work but also for her kindness and warm personality.

Beyond football, Helen was regarded as a close family friend to many within the community. Her sudden passing has created a deep void, and she will be remembered for her generosity, her smile, and the countless moments of joy she brought to others.

In a tribute, the club expressed its sorrow: “Helen was such a massive part of our club and will be greatly missed, not just at football but as a dear family friend. We send all of Helen’s family our love and are keeping them in our thoughts.”

As a mark of respect, a minute’s silence will be observed before all home games this Sunday. Helen’s memory will remain an enduring part of Thompsons United FC.
