We were all extremely saddened to hear that our Vice-President and stalwart of the Club, Christine Poxon, had passed away on Friday 16th March following a short illness. Obviously, our thoughts are with Christine's son Joe at this sad and difficult time and offer our condolences to him. Christine’s funeral, attended by many family, friends and Club members was held at Chilterns Crematorium on Saturday 31st March, followed by a celebration of her life at St Josephs. Everyone has their own special memories of Christine, who was a very supportive and long-standing willing member of the Club, and it is the club's intention to include a full obituary and dedicate the next issue of the Magazine to her memory. If anyone has any stories, memories or photographs they would like to share, please forward them to Chris Keys.
In February we learnt that Alan Bishop had died following a serious heart condition brought on by excessive protein production from his bone marrow. It was hoped that chemotherapy would redress the protein production, but unfortunately it seems his body reacted adversely to the treatment, with tragic consequences. Alan was a previous member of the Council and a copresenter of The Napspeed Trophy to the Club. We send our condolences to his family and friends.
