Obituary - 2024

Not too many of us write our own obituary but Bill did just that:

"He asked me to notify you and the Union-Castle line of his death or as he expressed “The dour bugger has gone below to see Davy Jones.”

He died on Sunday 4th February after a stroke.

Sudden but peaceful.

Bill Burgess
