A passionate, straight-talker and a friend to motorcycling will be remembered later today (Wednesday).
The funeral of Eddie Christian is to be held at Ballaugh Parish Church at a quarter to 12 (11.45am).
He and wife Rosie were well-known mine-hosts at the Sulby Glen pub and involved in many aspects of motorcycling in the Island.
