It is with great sadness that I have to inform you that on Saturday 7th June 2025 former Captain and Earlsdon RFC legend, Paul Keene, passed away in Limoges hospital in Central France. Paul had been suffering from cancer. 
Paul's funeral was held in Limoges on Thursday June 12th and was well attended with many family, friends and a large contingent of Earlsdon RFC members and friends.

The celebration of Paul's life was held in La Poste cafe bar in the central square in the village of Le Dorat where Paul and his lovely wife, former Earlsdon RFC Ladies Captain, Anita lived. The celebration went on well into the night and in true Keeney fashion, plenty of Karaoke singing.

PAUL KEENE RIP ❣️
