Tragic news for the club

The Venture Business club learned last week with great sadness of the death of Jim Smith, the club's Chairman. Jim died, apparently of a heart attack, whilst on honeymoon in Siberia and because of the location of his sad death the details are still sketchy and there is no news of when funeral arrangements can be expected.

The entire membership of the club expressed their shock and deep sense of loss at his untimely passing. Our deepest sympathy goes out at this time to his widow Dawn and our thoughts and best wishes are with her.

Jim will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He was kind, considerate and compassionate and his ongoing commitment and contribution to the club will be difficult to replace.

 

Details of arrangements for Jim's funeral are now known. It will be held on Monday 22nd October at 1:00pm at Altrincham Crematorium.
