Tributes to former Rotherham United Steward

RB1 Radio

Gwyn Thomas was born with neurofibromatosis.

A Go-Fund-Me page for “much loved” former Rotherham United steward has been set up following his death earlier this month.

Gwyn Thomas was born with neurofibromatosis, a genetic condition which causes tumors on the face resulting in partial blindness and disfigurements.

Brother Shaun is now asking the community to help raise funds for his brother’s funeral, who was aged 56 when he died.

Rotherham United posted a tribute onto their twitter, stating “Gwyn is fondly remembered by staff and supporters for his days at both Milmoor and Don Valley”.
