It was such a bombshell when Peter Crosby informed our Concord West Club meeting on Tuesday evening 11th January of Peter Mace's tragic accident the previous weekend.
Peter was a much loved and greatly admired member of our little Area 6 family. Peter served us as Area Director with grace and servitude and will be remembered as highly respected adversary across all 4 Contests genres. It was always a pleasure to share a stage with him.
His wonderfully dry wit and generous humour will be sadly missed as we approach another Contest Session. From those of us at Concord West Club who knew him for so many years, we extend our deepest sympathy to his family and our fellow Burwood Club Members.
