Pari Datta passed away unexpectedly in February after a battle with pneumonia, with his family by his side.  Pari played regularly at the club with Ali Baig, usually on Thursday afternoon.  We send our condolences to his wife Mariette, and their children Sara-Ann and Mark. 

Jean Williams passed away at the end of January.  Her son, Peter wrote to tell us "Both my mother and father spent many a happy morning at the club and since covid mum played regularly on-line. After my father passed away in 2023 and my mother’s mobility reduced the on-line bridge provided her with welcome stimulation and contact with friends".  We send our condolences to Jean's family and friends.
