Welcome to Stafford Bridge Club: EBU Affiliated
Derek Skinner

DerekMembers will be very sad to hear that Derek Skinner has passed away.  Derek was a very regular and well respected player at the club over many years until he moved away from the area in 2020 to be nearer his family in Cheshire. Derek was a regular player in the club Shelley teams competition  where he played with his regular partner, John Eaves.

John writes - "I started playing bridge with Derek in the early 1960's. From memory I joined bridge lessons provided by Basil Cooke and teamed up with Derek. We played together at a number of venues, including the then M E B club in Brunswick Terrace in Stafford. This was a location we particularly enjoyed because they had a snooker table and we both enjoyed a game. He was a joy to play both snooker and bridge with and later he and Rita became very good friends with my wife and myself. We continued to keep in touch on a regular basis with each other and met on occasions for lunch. He will be sadly missed by both of us". .  

Derek's funeral will be at 2 pm on Monday March 30th at Birches Crematorium and Remembrance Park, Birches Lane, Northwich. CW9 7SU
