KRUFC are saddened to have to report the sudden death of Keith Watkinson last Saturday 19th December 2020 following a heart attack.
Keith was a member of our 1st XV during the 1960's, playing in the 2nd row and noted for his forceful tackling. In later years he was a regular attender to watch games.
He worked for the family business, initially as haulage contractors but Keith developed it into a haulage and installation service; installing many escalators in the London Underground system. He once transported a 50m+ girder from John Smith's crane works in Keighley all the way to Oslo in Norway.
To his first wife he had 4 daughters and to his Brazilian second wife a son, Sam, who also briefly played for the club.
We extend condolences to Keith's family at this difficult time.
