Castlewellan Notes 13th March 2007
Club Bereavements.
The Club mourns the death of former Club members
Peggy Toner and Terence Rice who both passed
away last week-end. Peggy was a hard
working member of the Club Committee during the
1970’s and Terence (‘Zippy’) Rice was a very
popular member of the bar staff during the same
period. Our deepest sympathy to the
families of both Peggy and Terence.
