- Pete Davis 1941 - 2011
It is with great sadness that we report that Pete Davis passed away earlier this week. Pete was a founder member of Cotswold Fencing Club, and had been Head Coach and Chairman of the club for many years, rarely missing a week - until he was taken ill.
He has always fully supported the club, making sure that the sport of fencing continued within Cheltenham. Over the years he has introduced many people to fencing with his ready smile, friendly manner, and teaching style. He will be sorely missed. Our deepest
sympathy goes to Sue his wife, and his children.
Pete’s funeral will be held at Cheltenham Crematorium on Tuesday 29th March at 12 noon.
Family flowers only please. Any donations for Linton House Cobalt Unit Appeal Fund (cheques payable to ‘Cobalt’) gratefully received.
Donations will be handled by the funeral directors, Mason & Stokes, 54 Hewlett Road, Cheltenham GL52 6AH Tel: 01242 224 877.
