Wests Archivist, Bob Dickinson retired yesterday, 8 December after 19 years voluntary service to our Great Club.

 

During that time Bobby made many friends, was well loved by his Colleagues, and all those he came in contact with. He has been a wonderful support to Pratten Park Magpies assisting in whatever way he could, in particular greeting Guests at the Door of our Reunions for many Years.

Bobby was farewelled in fine style yesterday with a lovely, combined Retirement/Christmas Lunch @ Wests Ashfield. 

 

We wish Bobby all the best in his retirement and look forward to seeing him at our Annual Reunions for years to come.
