Barry Hasell

It is with sadness that we have to announce the recent death of Barry Hasell. Barry was a long-term member of the club and was instrumental in the purchase of 338 Boldmere Road. He served two terms as Chairman of the club and taught bridge to several current club members. He was a very good player and it was always a challenge playing against him.
The funeral will be held at 11:30 on Thursday 20th March at Sutton Crematorium. There will be a reception at 338 Boldmere Road immediately afterwards.

Please note that the normal Thursday morning bridge session will not be held that day.
