Vale Ron Wescott

It is with deep sadness that we advise that Ron passed away early on Wednesday morning, 12th March, having lost his battle against multiple cancers. Ron's partner, Cheryl, advises that, at the end, he went quickly and peacefully.

Ron will be remembered as a friendly, skillful and knowledgeable player and as director of many of our Friday sessions. Less well known are his behind-the-scenes services to the club as a member of the Match Sub-committee, as one of our deal file organisers, and as our diligent Masterpoint Secretary.

A gathering to celebrate Ron's life will be held at 1030 am on March 28 at Buda House, 42 Hunter Street, Castlemaine.

Our thoughts are with Cheryl and family. He will be sadly missed.
