John Sheldrick (Francophile1947) RIP

Post by Ian » Wed Sep 16, 2020 8:03 am

Sad news from Norwich. John Sheldrick passed away at the beginning of August. I was informed by his son, Aidan.

Until recently John, who was awarded lifetime Bongo Fury membership, was an active participant and volunteer at many of the club meetings. He was also a moderator here on the Forum.

He will be missed by all who knew him.

Just read this and was shocked and saddened. He was one of the giants of the Bongo world when I started on here many years back and I had many great banters with him. My sincere condolences to his family. RIP John. :cry:
