Burrow’s family, along with about 180 attendees, including his former teammate Jamie Jones-Buchanan, MND Association CEO Tanya Curry, and Leeds City Council leader James Lewis, were present at the event organized by Abigail Marshall Katung, the Lord Mayor of Leeds.
On July 7, as the cortege made its way to a private service, the streets were lined with supporters in Leeds Rhinos shirts, honoring Burrow. His wife Lindsey, their three children, and his family accompanied him. In a heartfelt gesture, the hearse stopped at Featherstone Lions’ ground, where Burrow first played junior rugby.
Lindsey Burrow paid tribute to her husband, saying he “made the world a better place.” Burrow’s final message encouraged everyone to “not waste a moment” of their lives, reminding us that “in a world full of adversity, we must still dare to dream.”
