R.I.P. TERRY FOSTER

 
Terry passed away on Sunday 25th September. Many of you would have known him. Terry had been involved with the Society from the beginning – for many years as a trustee and leader of the working party. His dedication to the woods was never ending. When not out on the tractor he would be found in the work shed or planning how to go about the next task. When faced with a problem I often ask myself how would Terry have dealt with this. I am believe he is up there looking down to make sure we all keep up his good work. Rest in peace Terry
