Thelma Reek
Thelma was the loving Wife of George Reek
and mother of Adrian & Miranda
George is a life member of the club and was Chief Instructor for a number of years.
Thelma will be remembered as a lovely lady, friendly to all and a willing helper at the club.
Thelma suffered from Breast Cancer for many years and passed away a few weekends ago.
Our thoughts go out to George and his family, Adrian and Miranda both of whom where active members of the club.
It was Thelma’s wish that she be cremated without friends and family in attendance and a Celebration of her life be held at a future date.
