Trevor Briffett 1931 – 2015

There may be just a few senior members of the club who remember Trevor, but sadly we must report his recent passing at his home in Buntingford. He had not fully recovered since he suffered a serious fall earlier this year.
Trevor joined us from the Herts. & Essex Wheelers in 1958 and with his wife, Barbara, they were active members of our club well in to the 1960s, when they rode club and open time trials and took part in club runs and most social events.
Although he did most of his later cycling with the East Herts. 40 plus, this century he was a regular attender of the twice a year lunches held by the “Totters” (the small group of senior riders formed in the 1990s by our late president, Edgar Mascall for short convivial fortnightly rides). Trevor and Barbara were always good company. Although partially sighted and ultimately completely blind during the past two decades, Trevor always enjoyed music and dancing and visits to his favourite jazz venues.
We send our sincere condolences to Barbara and the family.
The funeral will be at Parndon Crematorium, Harlow 1.45 pm on Wednesday 2nd September.
