Late Paul Martin

RIP Paul Martin.

Geriatric’s no 7

We will miss you, your character, your humour and laugh, whilst our opponents won’t miss your goal scoring ability.

Deepest condolences to Paul’s family and his Geriatrics team mates.

Late Hugh Farrell

Good morning Farrell Family and friends of Hugh Farrell.

I am sorry to bring this news to you today after yesterdays update.

My father Hugh Kevin Farrell has passed away this morning.

His body could not cope with the pain and the operation was too much.

I am so grateful to all of you and your prayers and good wishes for my father.

He was a good man.

And now he is with God.

RIP Hugh.

Late Greg Brill

Just had some really shocking news from Roy Hodgkinson.

Greg Brill died in his sleep last night (30 April 2023), suspected heart attack.

He did a 160km cycle and told his wife he had pains in his leg and was going to sleep it off.

Greg was a stalwart of the old Wanderers Waterpolo and was instrumental in keeping the side together during their days at Marist Inanda and most recently at Wahoo. He was always keen for a game and would give the forwards a hard time whilst defending with his long arms. As a keeper, I will miss his contribution to the game and keeping the “attackers” at bay.

He played his last Masters tournament with the Thirsty Lions in Durban in March 2023.

RIP Greg.

His memorial service and wake will be held at Bryanstan Country Club at 14h00 on Thursday 11 May.
