We have received the sad news that Life Vice-President Jim Green died on 7 July following a second stroke. Jim was instrumental in the success of the Old Boys 1st XI football team for many years, as well as editing and publishing our twice-yearly newsletter. He was also a school governor for a time and served the school and the Old Bournemouthians for many years.
Should anyone wish to attend, the funeral will be held at 11am on Thursday 27 July at Bournemouth East Cemetery, Gloucester Road. Please note the location is not the Bournemouth Crematorium & Cemetery.
So sad to hear of the passing of my old colleague on the Old Bournemouthians committee. Jim did so much for us in those days producing the Magazine and running the Football with such commitment.He even found time to come along and coach some of the younger boys in the Bournemouth Youth Football league. A gem.
Very sad to hear this news. As James Tarrant has said, Jim was a gem and his smile will live on in my memory. RIP mate.
