I checked out the Ealing Trailfinders web site and was very saddened to learn of the passing of Pete Green and Steve Lee, both of whom I remember fondly.

I have many happy memories of playing for the lower teams at Horsenden Hill, so often under your (Paul Clarke) leadership with Paul Morgan.

Easter rugby tours, organised by Steve, were always fantastic times (well, the bits that aren’t hazy because of all the alcohol consumed!)

George Duckworth and I exchange Xmas cards every year, and I did keep in touch with Pete Quinn until he split from wife Linda many years ago. I still exchange Xmas cards with Linda, who informed me a couple of years ago that Pete had sadly died suddenly of a heart attack.

Please pass on my condolences to Pete and Steve’s families.

I do hope that you and yours are well, and I must visit Ealing when the pandemic permits.

Stay safe, stay well, and stay sane!

Kindest Regards,
Phil
