It is with sadness that we announce the death of Roy Moore. 

Roy passed away suddenly on Saturday 16 November 2019,
having been admitted into hospital the previous day.

A Life Member of West Midlands Bridge Club, Roy not only spent many hours playing bridge at the Club, but was also very active in its administration. Roy joined the Board of Directors in 1992, then again in 2001, and was elected Chairman from 2003 until 2008.  In 2008, in recognition of his services to the Club, Roy was elected an Honorary Life Member.  Roy played a pivotal role in a number of major developments of the Club.  In 2010, owing to the poor health of the then serving Life President, Roy was asked to become Joint President of the Club, which he duly did, and continued as President of the Club until he retired in November 2015.

An excellent bridge player Roy, who still played a great game into his 97^th year - and kept us all on our toes – will be sorely missed by his friends and family, and our sincere condolences go to them all at this sad time.  As Roy takes his seat at the Eternal Bridge Table we say to him in the immortal words of the Royal Air Force:

Per Ardua ad Astra “Through Adversity to the Stars”.

Details of Roy’s Funeral and Celebration of his Life will be available when they become known to us.
