It is with great sadness that I have to report that Barrie Seymour passed away last Saturday after a long period of illness.

Barrie was a renowned and active bowler at Ringwood and an extremely popular member.

Although Barrie hadn't played bowls since the Covid period, he will be fondly remembered by long standing members of the club.

Barrie will be very much missed and our deep condolences go out his family and friends.

Details of Barrie's funeral will be posted in due course.

Kindest regards,
Chris Dalrymple


 

It is with great sadness that I have to report that Ray Gardner, husband of Margery Gardner, passed away on Sunday 19th February 2023.

Ray’s cremation is on 9th March at the Bournemouth Crematorium at 12.15pm and afterwards at the Conservative Club Ringwood.

On behalf of all at Ringwood Bowling Club we send Margery and their family our sincerest condolences at this very sad time.

Kindest regards,
Chris Dalrymple


 

It's is highly likely that some Club Members, of more that 15 years standing, will remember Alec and Sylvia Wells. I have received the following email from Alec.
Our thoughts and condolences go out to Alec, his family and friends.

Chris Dalrymple.


I am very sad to report that Sylvia Wells passed away on Boxing Day after 2 years fighting cancer. We were members but left in 2007 as the majority of our family live here in Swindon, and we were beginning to get old (67). Please could you inform the aged bowlers who may remember her. I told President Derick on the phone as I remembered his name and saw he was doing what I did for a year. I am sending the funeral details in case anyone wants to come.

Sylvia’s funeral will be Saturday 28th January at 12.00 pm –
Please let me know if you wish to attend as I need to know for catering and leaflets.
