Lion Sydney Longson
Lions Club of Jersey
The Lions Club of Jersey records with sorrow the death of Past District Governor Lion Sydney Longson.
Lion Sydney was a Charter Member at the Club’s formation in November 1963, was elected President for 1965/66 and served as District Governor for District 105D in 1983/84.
Lion Sydney was an architect, and the development of Maison des Landes Hotel for People with Disabilities, a Lions Club of Jersey project since 1965, which is now in the Club’s ownership, owes much to his expertise and will be a lasting legacy to him.
In addition to a wide range of Club offices, Lion Sydney was also the Club’s archivist and a long-serving member and chairman of the Constitution and Membership committee until his final illness prevented him participating this year.
It is a tribute to his inspirational skills and powers of persuasion that the Jersey Club has had 50 different presidents in it's 50 years.

Lion Jenny Stallard
Lions Club of Eastleigh
Members are sad to report the sudden death of Lion Jenny. Although only a member of the club for two years, having transferred from the Guernsey Club where she had been an active member navigating others around the island and taking part in their activities, she brought her own special individuality to the club’s meetings and became involved in most events.
Although very actively involved with Lions she still found time to help in the local ‘Age Concern’ shop. She will be sadly missed and our members’ thoughts are with her family, especially her daughter Kate and son James.
