Robert Williams – In Memoriam

The funeral of Robert Williams was held on Monday October 26th. Our chair Alison remembers him fondly;

Rob was an old member of East Cheshire Combined Training Group, and East Cheshire Pony Club. He was an active member of the pony club in his youth representing in both horse trials and dressage, show jumping was never his forte!!! He was on the event team who qualified for the championships at Stoneleigh in 1976 with myself, Peter Gleave and Michael Richardson, the team finishing 5th.
We both joined East Cheshire Combined Training Group and he competed for many years with his wife Marie. He was very much involved in pony club with his children Becky and Tom and the mounted games teams.
Rob played golf, skied, rode horses and bikes, ran his own business (he printed our programme!) was great fun to be around, a real gent and a lovely friend. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Marie, Becky and Tom at this time, Rob your children are such a credit to you and Marie. God bless X
