STAY SMART - STAY APART
It is with great sadness we report the passing of our past president John Parkhouse, whose dedication to the club and whose leadership will be difficult to replace.
John had been a member of Southampton West Rotary Club since 1975, he and Chrissie have been a formidable team. Our thoughts are with Chrissie and family at this sad time.
A Memorial Service was held April 5th at Southampton Crematorium .
