Dear Bill , thank you for your Bowling guidence for my late mum Pam Colvin when she belonged to the Waverley Bowling Club , she often came home after tournaments and spoke fondly of you. You were a quietly spoken man, who gave great encouragement for all bowlers at any level to achieve success in their bowls. Rest in peace now Bill and thank you again.
