Neville's Ashes

According to the will of life long aero modeler, Neville Legg, (our late club secretary and one of the founding members of MMFC) his ashes were to be scattered over the Stickfast Lane field from a model aeroplane.

Sunday 27th May 2012 was a beautiful sunny day and Nev's wishes were duly carried out by Phil Fearn.

A special release box (decorated in the same style as Neville's coffin) was attached to a large petrol engine model, Phil released Nev's ashes over the 'strip' in front of a large crowd who came to pay their respects. It was a poignant, but totally appropriate epitaph, to an enthusiastic modeler and greatly respected club member.
