CHARLES FOGG – It is with great regret that I have to advise you all of the death of CHARLES at the age of 82. He joined us in 1992 as a coach and official and also served as our coaching secretary, and later set up our original website. GEOFF MORPHITIS reminisced that he was one of our most positive supporters always having an opinion on the governing body and the rules as well as regularly answering his last minute calls for an official to help out at LICC meetings.
Charles was an International Walker and as a walker was a member of Enfield AC he was one of the few walkers who had completed 10 miles in under 80 minutes. Charles was in the Met Police and served at Heathrow and was an instructor at the police training establishment in Colindale. After retiring from the police Charles went into IT and set up our first website. The family moved to Leicestershire and yet Charles still ran the website business in Horsham and coached locally in the Sussex area. I spoke to him a couple of weeks ago and everything appeared fine as he was just off to another coaching session.
He is survived by his wife LINDA who competed for us for many years and who currently holds 13 Masters Club Records. Their son NICK was a County standard hammer thrower and an ever present in Club teams for many years when they used to live locally. Many of you will know Charles and will have your own memories of him.
