Clive Wallis G3CWV

It is with great sadness that I have to inform you that I have just learnt
of the passing of our dear friend Clive Wallis, G3CWV on 27th March 2015.

Clive has been a very staunch supporter of AMSAT from the very early days.
Many will recall his intense interest and loyalty in following
UOSAT-2/UO-11. He maintained a very comprehensive web site with details of
the spacecrafts activities. He wrote many articles for Oscar News about his
activities. He attended many AMSAT-UK Colloquia.

He was awarded the Louis Varney cup for 2015 by the RSGB, and although he
knew of the award before his passing, the formal presentation is not until
25 April.

His funeral is to be held on Tue 22 April 2015 at 3.00pm at Christchurch,
Bedford Road, Hitchin, Herts, UK. I am sure that his family would
appreciate the presence of any AMSAT members who are able to be there.

We send our condolences to his widow, Janet.

RIP, Clive.

73s
