was married to Christine and had two sons. | Highly regarded within the East Lan cashire health community, hewas always I keen to promote collaborative workingl relationships and had forged many produc-[ tive partnerships in the area of primary! care, including GPs, pharmacists, dentists | and optometrists. His colleague, Michael O’Connor, pri
mary care development manager, said: “Derek was an expert in primary care development, but he was also a genuinely nice person and a devoted family man who will be sorely missed by family, friends and colleagues. We would all echo that,” he said.

Club pays tribute respected colleague
by Vivien Meath
MEMBERS of Clitheroe Probus Club stood in silence following the news that highly respected member Mr Jim Parker had died. Chairman Cliff Astin broke the sad news and
briefly reviewed the high regard which members felt for Mr Parker and said how sadly missed he would be. Members’ recalled a friend who had played
such an important role in musical and other activities in this part of Lancashire in general and in the club, in particular.
Reward for pet’s return
A SUBSTANTIAL reward is being offered for the safe return of an 11-month-old dog believed stolen from a house in Barrow last Saturday. The dog, pictured, is say the owners, a very
friendly male Staffordshire bull terrier. He went missing from the house in Whalley Road at 7-30 p.m. on Saturday, while he was inside with all the doors closed. His distraught owners believe some one sneaked into the house and took their dog. He is mostly black with some slight brindle colouring and a white chest. The last inch of his tail is also white and one toe is missing from his front right paw. Anyone who knows where this dog is, or has any
information about him, is urged to phone 077900 968S5.

" f r - - ; Mr Astin introduced Captain John Caley, pay
ing a return visit, who spoke about his experi ences in the Merchant Navy. He started his seafaring career on the Clan
Line cargo ships. When this company took over the Union Castle line he found himself chief offi cer on a passenger liner sailing the mail voyage between Southampton and South Africa. The Union Castle captain, a stickler for punc
tuality, allowed nothing but unavoidable bad weather to prevent him from arriving on time, aiming to arrive to the minute after an 11-day voyage from Southampton. The speaker recounted fascinating anecdotes
involving drama in the form of an on-board bul lion robbery; tragi-comedy - the suicidal drunken passenger who “missed” the ocean and broke a leg on the deck below to the disgust of his wife; and snobbery - some of the first-class passengers he met in the days of apartheid. All-in-all a life full of incident and interest for
the attentive and appreciative audience. The vote of thanks was given by member John
Adey. The next meeting of Clitheroe Probus Club is
tomorrow at 10-45 a.m. at the Pendle Club, Low- ergate, Clitheroe, when Mr Len Ashworth's talk will be entitled: “The Terracotta Army”.

board, he finished third in the large inter mediate show riding type class. Although bred and brought up in the
