Remembering Ralph Silvester

Information was supplied by Bob Murphy, ex-club chairman and one of the founder members.

We have just learned of the passing of Ralph Silvester of YAM and his blue Harley fame. Many of you will remember his slow, confident, arm waving rides around the cones in Squires' car park. Ralph was an active observer with YAM until approximately 2005/2006 and he has trained some of the current observers. His sister-in-law contacted me this morning and I list below the notice in today's Yorkshire Post:
