Bro. Bob Bell

I first met Bob Bell many years ago –  as my memory is failing I can’t remember the year -  when the Knight’s Chapter met in the Falcon in the High Street.  Bob was a fine upstanding figure of a man and served the Chapter well in various offices.  He did a particularly good job as the Director of Ceremonies.   He followed this as  Vice-President of the Chapter then as President.

In those days,  the Knight’s Chapter held a Ladies festival Dinner which was organised in part by the Director of Ceremonies.  Bro Bob did a sterling job in the organisation of the dinner both as D of C and as President.  His speech as President was a superb example of the best speeches – short, to the point with some humour thrown in.
