Peter Watcham
« on: 31 December, 2023, 11:24:38 AM »
We're sure that his many friends in the club will be as upset as we are to learn of Peter's death. He was taken ill just before Christmas and sadly died on Friday.
Our thoughts go out to June and his family at this sad time.

Very sad news. Peter was a consummate Lancista owning and driving Lancias every day until recently. A stalwart supporter of the Annual Weekend, and FFFEAR rallies.

Our thoughts are with June and her family.

Eileen spoke to June lastnight. Peter's funeral is to be at Hemel Hempstead crematorium on Friday the 2nd of February at 12.30
This is the new crematorium off Bedmond Road post code HP3 8LL.

Peter is a great loss to us. He was in fine form at our Herts & Beds Christmas dinner and looking forward enthusiastically to getting either his Fulvia rally car or Volumex Coupe back in action for the start of the season.

It has been a great pleasure to have been friends with Peter and June for many years, and so sad that we've lost him.
 As Frank said, he was in good form at our group Christmas Dinner,
Although we knew he was having problems, this came as a big shock.
All my condolences go to June, and their family at this sad time.

Real shock to hear this sad news, we saw him in Late November and he was same as usual.
He was a great supporter of both Herts and Beds and Essex monthly meetings when I did them .
A real loss to the people who knew him and the car fraternity.
Heartfelt condolencies to June and family.
