RIP SALLY BIDWELL

It is with deep regret that we have learnt of the sudden and unexpected death of Sally Bidwell Wife of John Bidwell.

Sally was taken ill & diagnosed with a rare illness although recovery was possible she passed away on 4th August 2011 very quickly after an intracerebral bleed.

Sally had strong family values and was as comfortable organising John and the High lodge staff as she was being a staunch supporter of the GB FITASC Sporting team.

Sally travelled widely in support of Johns endeavours at FITASC Sporting European and World Championships events; she was always ready to invite you for a cup of tea as she was to offer her support to the GB teams.

Most recently, Sally was present at the CLA Game Fair with her primary role of Grand Children ‘protector’; Sally was indeed a doting Grand Mother and loved looking after her Grandchildren.

Sally will be sorely missed throughout the shooting community; all BICTSF Directors, FITASC Sporting and Sporting Referees, wish the Bidwell family to know they are in our thoughts at this time of need.

Further details in relation to Sally’s Funeral arrangements will be announced shortly by the family and available direct from High Lodge & their website.

George and Kate wish to add: "Sally was a wonderful person, she supported John throughout his career, was a wonderful Mother and Grandmother. Kate and I are so sad to hear about Sally's death, and our love and support go out to her family."
