Dedicated to the memory of a loving brother, husband, father, grandfather, GP and very decent golfer!

This site is a tribute to Bill Moxon, who was born in Harrogate on January 21, 1930. He was much loved and will always be remembered. The following is the text of a notice placed in the Yorkshire Post. 

MOXON, Dr. James William Alexander
‘Bill’ died peacefully at Bilton Hall Nursing Home on 9th April 2020 aged 90, one of life’s colourful characters, much loved brother of Pauline, husband of Elspeth (Betty) for 61 years, father of John, James & Helen and proud grandpa to Beth, Kate, Annasofie, Zachary, Eleanor (Ellie) and Owen.

Educated at Sedbergh School and Leeds University, honing his medical skills in the Royal Army Medical Corps, he spent thirty years as a much respected GP in Leeds where he was also Honorary Medical Officer to the Yorkshire County Cricket Club and instrumental in setting up Exercise ECG testing for the pioneering Leeds based ‘Heartwatch’ cardiac rehabilitation programme. A talented  woodworker and gardener he also loved his sports and became a very proficient low handicap golfer who thrived on the competition and the camaraderie. 

He will be much missed by his family and many friends.
