In memory of BASIL MARDEN

Basil Marden (24 March 1931 to 19 September 2024)

BasilBasil passed away on 19 September. He played bowls up until 3 weeks before his passing.

Basil was a member of our club (with a few years spent at Beltana) for 40 years. Basil was Vice-President in 1983-84 and 1985-86. He became a Life Member of the club in 2015.

Our older members remember Basil’s Fish Teas at the club (fresh fish caught on the day and cooked and served up at the club). Newer members have all enjoyed his tasty curried chicken. Basil was a great cook.

Basil was a dedicated pennant player, team member and inspiration to us all. Basil’s support and friendship to everyone will be missed. Rest in Peace, Basil.
