Peter Ridley
Guernsey Lions Club

The Lions Club of Guernsey with great sadness, reports the death of a former President, Lion Peter Ridley at the age of 62. Owing to a long illness bravely borne had been granted privileged status but still managed to assist at the club's major fund raising events. Lion Peter had also held the offices of Treasurer and Fundraising committee chairman. His scrutiny of the accounts and the treasurer of the day were eagerly awaited at the monthly meetings. He had been a member of the club for 29 years and his dry humour and willingness to support the club will be sadly missed. Our deepest sympathies go to his wife Jenny and his children at this very sad time for them all.

Pat Young
Wimborne and Ferndown Lions Club

Wimborne & Ferndown Lions Club regrets to report the passing to higher service of Lion Pat Young. In 2000, during his first stint as Mayor of Ferndown, Pat visited us to lend civic support to our Christmas food parcels and was so impressed that he joined us. Pat was a very supportive member despite the distractions of a second term as Mayor and becoming Branch President the Royal British Legion. Our Club will miss his ready wit and rich voice at our meetings and our condolences go to his widow Ros and their family.
