We read recently that Dave Quelch has passed away at home aged 85 years. Dave, together with his wife Jenifer, were landlords of the The Black Horse pub in Foxton and The Bell in Gumley which had quite a lot of cricket memorabilia on the wall. He will be greatly missed by family and friends.

Tim was a Belgrave lad and grew up with a passion for every type of sport, both playing and spectating. 

Dear Editor

1930 -2024

It is with great sadness that I am writing to report the recent death of Mrs Beryl Lloyd.  She was the wife of the late John Lloyd and mother to the three of us (Peter, Andrew and the late David). She had lived in Kibworth Harcourt for over 60 years and was one of the founders of the tennis club. She also taught at the village primary school for many years and was well known around the village.  She always loved Kibworth and passed away with many happy memories.

A number of  Kibworth & District Chronicle readers may know of Joan and John Boyall, the couple who enjoyed daily morning walks in and around Kibworth. They had many local casual acquaintances with whom they chatted and laughed.
