Friends and family of the beloved Brookside star, Dean Sullivan, known to many as Jimmy Corkhill have paid tribute to him at his funeral. After his passing, aged 68, following a brief illness last month, hundreds of people came together at Liverpool Parish Church to honour his memory.
The service was a touching tribute to his life in the city where he became a legend. A private cremation, attended only by his closest loved ones, followed the service.
Despite having moved away from Liverpool to New Brighton on the Wirral, Dean’s connection to the city remained strong, evident in the gathering of friends and family who came to celebrate his life. In a touching moment, Dean’s cherished dog was escorted into the church by a companion, giving the faithful pet a chance to say goodbye one last time.
