We have received this message regarding ex-Yateley cricketer, John Branson.
John sadly passed away on Wednesday 19 Feb, after battling against cancer for a considerable time. John was an absolute legend in the realms of Berkshire Seniors Cricket and will be sorely missed both on and off the field.
The funeral will take place on Monday 10 March at St Peter's Church, Yateley at 1.30pm. I understand that John's wife, Merril, has requested that if sufficient cricketers attend the funeral there could perhaps be an archway of cricket bats.
If you are intending to go to the funeral could you please take your bat along with you.
Regards,
David
