RoomSixty Youth Work In Memory Of Phil Hawthorne

Phil Hawthorne started working at RoomSixty in 2014 as a youth worker; he was deeply devoted to all who passed through the doors. The loss of a son, a brother, a husband, a father and a friend is a hard thing to take, as is the loss of a role model and a mentor to the many youth in Ayr that Phil committed his time so passionately to. He spent his time walking young people through the ups and downs of life.

 

No monetary value will be able to replace what Phil gave to these youth. However, Phil himself was actively involved in fundraising for the RoomSixty charity, and it is the wish of loving wife Ruth that Phil's memory be honoured through donations to this cause.

 

"Only one life, 'twill soon be past, Only what's done for Christ will last. And when I am dying, how happy I'll be, If the lamp of my life has burned out for Thee."
