BMAFC to Pay Tribute to Tony Chapman
Wednesday, 13 April 2011 17:46
It was with a profound sadness that the BMAFC committee learned of the tragic death of local family man, Tony Chapman, early on Tuesday morning, April 12, 2011.
Tony, who is survived by his wife Jenny and three children Shannon, Kelsie and Brooke, had been heavily involved in our club at the beginning of the century as a coach and committee member, and volunteered his plumbing skills to fix the guttering at the Beachlands Domain shed. If you did not know Tony personally, you may have seen his purple "Plumb Crazy" van about town.
Tony was a much loved man and will be sorely missed by the community at large.
Beachlands Maraetai AFC will honour Tony's life this Saturday, April 16, with a minute's silence before each match played - home and away - and each of our teams will be encouraged to wear a black arm band as a sign of respect for his passing.
