The funeral for Everton legend Alex Young took place at Warriston Crematorium in Edinburgh on Saturday morning. As an Evertonian, and someone who is immensely proud to have played for Everton Football Club, I would like to extend on behalf of the Club our deepest condolences to Nancy, to Alex, to Jason, to Jane and to your extended family and friends. Alex Young will forever be synonymous with Everton. When I first came to the Club in 1980 I was aware of the players who had worn the shirt before me.
Club Everton Ambassador Graeme Sharp was present and paid the following tribute.
