Andy Divers

Former club member Andy Diver died in Australia on 19th September. Andy joined the club in December 1945 and was a good member initially as a runner then as a committee member filling a range of posts including that of treasurer. He also took a full part in the club social activities such as the annual football match against the swimming club and the annual cyclists v athletes race against Lomond Roads CC. It was a blow to the club when he left in the late 1950's but he kept in touch and for his 80th birthday his family asked for club vest and sweat top to present to him as part of a larger ceremony. Andy's many friends will feel saddened by his loss.
