Phil Phelps, Forest of Dean beekeeper, 1937 – 2016

It is with great sadness that we have to announce that our dear friend and long standing Dean Forest member Phil passed away peacefully last month. He had been ill for 18 months, and was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer about 6 months ago.

He died at home in the house where he was born 79 years ago. I’m sure you will all join with us in sending his wife Jean and his family our deepest sympathy.

Phil’s funeral was held at on Friday, 27th May at the Forest of Dean Crematorium.
