Steve's Speech

Hi, I`m Steve Mossey and I was Mick’s bridge partner for about 14 years. He was a very good player and we had a lot of success at Hertford Bridge Club. We won several competitions at the club and also at other venues. Probably our biggest success was leading our team of 8 to victory in the Eccles Cup in Hemel Hempstead. We once came second in the Heath Cup, at Hertford Heath, out of about 35 teams of 4...and we won £60! Perhaps our biggest disappointment was coming second in the Club Champions pairs in WGC - we could have won but for throwing the wrong card right at the end of the hand. Although we occasionally pointed out each others mistakes we never had a row or took umbrage.
Apart from bridge we also played golf as a pair a couple of times at Knebworth GC against another bridge pair..we won! I was at Knebworth last Tuesday and spoke to the bar tender...she said that Mick was a lovely bloke and very popular.
Mick was a generous man - he offered me good deals on his old cars...I bought two from him and my wife still drives one. He was also very generous in sponsoring my charitable expeditions. He will be greatly missed.
