GEOFF HARDY
It
is with the deepest regret that we must announce
the death of
Geoff Hardy.
Geoff passed away on Tuesday 20th
December at the age of 73.
Although a renown Chesterfield League player,
our records show that Geoff won the Sheffield
Championship (then known as the Sheffield Open)
on 3 occasions in the 60’s and 70’s.
He
was a member of the Clowne Liberal Club team
that were runners up in the A Division in 1966
and again in ’68 but went on to win the
divisional runners up cup in both years.
The
Clowne team also won the Teams KO in 1969.
Geoff will be remembered and admired for his
dedication to the success of our neighbour
Association in Chesterfield not only as a player
but as an organising official.
He
took on the role as Competition Secretary in
1997 and added the role of the League Secretary
in 2003. He remained a regular player in the
Chesterfield League until his untimely death.
The
Funeral service is on Friday 30th
December at 2.30pm.
at
Brimington Crematorium, Chesterfield Road, S43
1AU
Donations can be made to the British Heart
Foundation.
Our
thoughts and best wishes are with wife Carole,
family and close friends.
We would also like to
offer our sincere condolences to the players and
officials of the Chesterfield Snooker
Association
