| John Chamberlain |
Sadly, we report the news that John Chamberlain died on Friday. He was one of Reading Bridge Club’s members with the longest unbroken membership and one who had aways been very supportive of the club.
John, who retired as a partner in a local firm of Chartered Accountants, was an enthusiastic sportsman who had played hockey across the world for the English Seniors.
Bowls came afterwards and he was still playing last year.
In between, John would play bridge whenever he could and was still playing last week, even when he could no longer get out of bed!
The funeral will be held at the Sacred Heart Church, Henley at 2pm on Tuesday 6 May and afterwards tea at Phyllis Court, Marlow Road, Henley.
