It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Steven Barry Arkell (Steve), who passed away on 9th October 2026, aged 80 years. A much-loved family member, dear friend, and familiar face around Leamington Spa, Steve will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. Family and friends are warmly welcomed to celebrate his life on Thursday 5th November at 1:00 pm at the Mid Warwickshire Crematorium, where Steve will be brought to the service by horse and carriage. As a lifelong and devoted Arsenal fan, those attending are very welcome to wear a splash of red if they wish. A gathering will follow at Whitnash Sports & Social Club. Family flowers only please, but donations in Steve’s memory may be made to The Myton Hospices.
