The Passing of Peter Thomas

Written By Lee Carter

It is with great sadness that we report the death of Peter Thomas

Pete joined Southend RFC in 1974 and started playing for the Colts team. He then moved into the senior side and quickly became a 1st team regular pick in the back row. Pete retired in 1985 due to serious illness but always supported SRFC.

Pete is one of only 2 people to have held the SRFC Presidents role twice for a total of 8 years.

He will be sadly missed.

RIP Pete
