I was very saddened and shocked to receive the news that longstanding member David Potter of Beverley, Yorks had passed away suddenly on Sunday 2nd June.

Val and I have known David and Mary along with their sons Simon and Edward since they joined the club in 1987. They have always been regular ralliers and also marshalled many excellent rallies over the years. David & Mary recently celebrated their 350th rally on the Tallington Lakes Rally in March.

David will be sadly missed by all who knew him and will always be remembered for his quizzes and his sense of humour.

Our thoughts are with Mary, Simon, Ed and their families at this sad time.

RIP David

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Please give the family privacy to grieve.

Any contact with the family should be made ONLY via their son Ed.

Please let Ed Potter know if you intend to attend the funeral on 07957 860586, text message preferred and not a phone call if at all possible.

Wendy Darlow has confirmed to me that Malcolm passed away in March after a long illness.   They both got such pleasure in attending SOC Rallies when able and Wendy is trying to build a memories book of photos.  If anyone happens to have a photo of them on a Rally she would really appreciate a copy.  We have found a couple so far and have her e-mail address if anyone else can help. I do know quite a few photos were taken on our Austrian Rally for instance.

Thank you.
