Walter Clarke

We have received the sad news that Marie’s Dad and Kay’s husband, Walter, passed away on 12th July 2011. Kay and the family decided on family flowers only, with donations if desired to go to the swimming club, as Walter has been a huge supporter of the club for many years. If anyone would like to make a donation, they can do so C/O D B Devall and Son Ltd, 2 Wembrook House, The Green, Attleborough, Nuneaton, Warwickshire, CV11 4JF.  The donations are for Walter Ernest Clarke and cheques should be made payable to Bedworth Disabled Swimming Club.

Thank You.
