      <content:encoded><![CDATA[It is with deep regret and sadness that I Have to inform our members and those that knew John that he has sadly passed away  on Wednesday morning 26/01/2022<br />
John was a keen member and liked by all, he attended as many meetings as he could, shows and especially camping events over the years.<br />
We helped John and his sister Jean celebrate his 80th birthday a few years ago and held a joint celebration of his 80th and LADS 15th anniversary.<br />
For those wanting to pay their respect his funeral is on...<br />

Loved his cars and was a Subaru fan.<br />
I&#039;ve been asked to join  a convoy of  scoobies at the funeral which was his wish.<br />
<br />
Ive also been told to ask around for more numbers, if anyone&#039;s free, would be much appreciated.<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I&#039;m struggling putting this into words, but thought some members would like to see it here rather than in the paper.<br />
<br />
Kev Fallowes sadly passed away this afternoon in a motoring accident.<br />
<br />
Kev had become one of my closest friends since moving to a new area, and whilst he didn&#039;t own a Subaru his love for the mark, rallying, and anything on 4 wheels that went fast, shone through.<br />
<br />
Some of you may remember him from the New Brighton rally last year and he didn&#039;t forget you - forever...<br />
