It is with great sadness that we have to announce the death of a founder member, club athlete, coach, physio and "father of the club". Roy Fowler, passed away at 6.30am on Saturday 27th June 2009.
As many of you know, he had been poorly for a long time, had battled through his cancer as he would, but recently had succumbed to it again.
Roy's funeral will be held on Monday 6th July 2009. 1.45pm at St Edward's Church, Church Street. Leek.
Mrs Fowler and family would welcome anyone who would like to attend the Church service. Following this, the cortège will proceed to Leek Cemetery for a private commitment, due to numbers, this will be for family and close friends only.
Flowers are welcome or donations to McMillan nurses.
We were sent a great photo of Roy and old colleagues by Bryan Dale:
