Sad News about Tony Seppings

[Chris Sawyer]

I am sad to report that I have been informed that Tony Seppings has passed away.

Many of you will not have met him, but he was a permanent fixture at the club for over 60 years.  He joined OPS in 1953 and left just a few years ago making him the longest serving member.  He was Chair of the club on two separate occasions (1966-69) and (2000-02).

I remember him well and was fortunate to attend a club meeting in 2011 when he took us through his photographic journey from the early 50s onwards.

Very sad news. Many of us had a number of conversations with him.
Thank you for letting us know.

That is sad news. Will you be advised of the funeral arrangements?
Tony was a great ambassador for the club. His Friday night print discussion evenings at his house were always well attended, not to mention the refreshments provided.

Agree, he will be sadly missed as one of the club stalwarts with lots of good memories

I have not heard anything as yet about any funeral arrangements, but I will post the details as soon as I am advised of these.

I have been informed that it is likely that a small private funeral for Tony Seppings has already taken place.  If I hear anything different I will post it here.
