David Ware

It is with great sadness that I have been informed of the passing of David Ware, club member for more years than I can remember and who was our trusty Secretary for an unequalled 19 years. Those who knew David will remember his smiling face, joviality, total love of the countryside and his energy and enthusiasm to accomplish more in retirement than many others achieve during their working lives. David was always supportive of others and worked tirelessly and generously to further the club and its membership. He will be sorely missed.

I am sure we will all also be thinking of Catherine, who continues the painful process towards recovery following the road accident almost two years ago, and of son Mark who was also a club member for many years. We wish you and other family members well at this very difficult time.
