Jon died just before Christmas after a long illness. A long-time member, together with others he was involved in the rebuilding of parts of the bar and toilets, and also in set building. In recent years he was most likely to be encountered in the bar on a Friday evening reminiscing with his friends. He was a genial character and very good company.

The funeral was on 16th January in Hitchin. At the service, Ian Colpitts read from the humorous works of Gerard Hoffnung, a particular favourite of Jon’s.

We send our condolences to Jon’s friends and family.
