She will take part in a fundraising walk around Liverpool city centre
Soap star Kym Marsh has said she feels 'very lucky' to have had her family by her side when her dad passed away last year. Her father David died aged 78 last January after fighting a long battle with prostate cancer - three years after his initial diagnosis.
Although the family was in the early stages of the grieving process, they decided to honour his wish and still attend the walk. She said: "I was trying to say to my mum are you sure you want to do this. Is it not too soon? My mum and dad were together since my mum was 17. She added: "There was someone singing Beatles songs and, as we turned the corner, they started the song that we played at my dad's funeral. Whether people believe in that or they don't, for us, it was a wow moment. We were like he was definitely with us that night and really did feel very close to dad at that point, so it was a lovely thing to do."
