Chris had been struggling with her health for a number of years and it was with disbelief on hearing of her passing so suddenly.
Chris was a talented golfer and has been the Ladies Club Champion for 18 of the last 20 years.
Ill health prevented her competing in the other two years. This is a remarkable record that will be impossible to break.
Chris also holds the ladies course record. Chris served a couple of terms as the ladies captain.
To Merv and Chris’ loved family, our thoughts and deepest sympathy are with you in this time of sad loss. Rest in Peace Chris. You are now free of pain and will be missed by all.
