    Very sorry to hear about Les. When SEFTA was formed, Les became Secretary and I was "volunteered" for Chairman by Chris Lowe. At first, I thought Les was a bit gruff (cantankerous even) but we all got along and business progressed very well under Les's stewardship. I served just 2 terms but can well remember Les being presented with a carriage clock when he "retired" from his position after several years service. A great shame that so many of the older ones are leaving us.

    Funeral Service will be Tuesday 12th May 2009 at South chapel of Chelmsford Crematorium. 14.45pm.
    Donations to Farleigh Hospice as requested by Les's wife Irene, instead of flowers.

    R.I.P

    Yes, as Barry says, many thanks indeed to all who attended, even if we did all look like extras from Reservoir Dogs in our suits (old Les would’ve laughed ). Atvb: Gareth W-B.
