Bob Wykes RIP

I was saddened to read of the death of Bob Wykes a former chairman of the Bridge Trust;  Bob was involved in setting up  the trust in 1995 and was one of the original directors.  He was a 'mover and shaker' who had a strong presence at board meetings. In 2004 he became chairman   and I was fortunate to be his vice-chairman for a number of years. He retired from the board a couple of years after I left.  He was an unassuming person, without side, who confronted problems head on. The trust and those the organisation assisted out of homelessness owe Bob a huge debt of gratitude.

News of his death has come as a shock, so soon after the death of Len Horwood.
