Graham "Sammy" Simmonds - Funeral 1st March 11am

Pat Stokes30 Jan 2024 - 13:15

Some sad news to share - Graham "Sammy" Simmonds passed away peacefully on Monday 29th January with his family by his side after a long illness.

Graham was an incredible, lovely and gentle man who spent many years at the club. Working tirelessly as club treasurer in the 60s and 70s. He would play in any position, any team and anywhere. In later years he was a stalwart club volunteer and part of the Thursday crew with Phil Lamb and Chris Jones who carried out maintenance and repair work at the clubhouse and pitches / grounds. Always seen in his trademark shorts - he led his own personal campaign against Japanese Knotweed at Banky Lane.

Sammy's funeral will take place on Friday 1st March at All Saints Church in Hale Barns followed by a service at the Crematorium (family only) and then food in the Church Hall afterwards. All welcome.

RIP Sammy.
