Sad News

Post by mac » 27 Mar 2011 11:17 am

It is with great regret that I must announce the death of Eddie Fisher who passed away last Friday after a very short Illness.

For those who did not know him he was a long term VOC member and a regular at the annual BKV. Although in his eighties he was very active and a guaranteed presence at the monthly Essex & Suffolk VOC region meets. His working life was spent as a vehicle delivery driver for Volvo.

His usual drive was a 1966 Amazon - but of late favoured an '87' 340 which I had re-comissioned for him. (which took 2nd in class at last years BKV).

Those who did know him will remember him as forthright, stubbon, opinionated, but a wealth of stories and above all a good friend.

Debs and I will miss him greatly,

Mac.
