Dan Potter – Gone Home – Updated Funeral Arrangements
It is with immense sadness that I announce to our Shropshire Scouting Family the sudden loss over the weekend of Daniel Potter , our inspirational Regional Commissioner for the West Midlands, former Shropshire County Commissioner , Explorer Leader for Severn and Teme, Group Scout Leader at Ludlow , Scout and friend to everyone in Scouting across Shropshire, West Midlands and Nationally.
I know that many of us would not be volunteering and giving opportunities for skills for life to youngsters but for Dan’s enthusiasm and support. He will be missed by all of us. Dan was to attend our AGM on 11th September and I spoke with him before he passed and he was so looking forward to the occasion and to thank us for the amazing work we have all done in Shropshire over the last year. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Kathryn and his children at this difficult time.
We now have details of the funeral arrangements:
The funeral has now been confirmed as the Friday 11th October at St Paul’s Church Dosthill. 16 Church Rd, Tamworth B77 1LU. At 10:00. Then to the Crematorium address and time to follow.
Yours in Scouting
Eddie Hulme
County Lead Volunteer
