I am sorry to be the bearer of the sad news of the death of Stephanie (Steve) Ward on Friday, after many years of incapacity and illness, Steve was associated with the club since the mid-50's as the wife of Ray Ward, who was club captain on several occasions through to the 1970’s. In her own right, Steve was a leading member of the club’s social scene during those years, serving on the ladies committee, organising events and providing tea after games and so on. The photo shows her lining up for a ladies XV in 1973. Details of the funeral arrangements are above. Our condolences and best wishes go to Ray and the family at this difficult time.
