Obituary.
It is with much sadness that we have to advise that one of our long standing members, Mr Peter Wise, passed away on Friday 5th February 2010, after a recent battle with Cancer. Peter, well known in the shooting world for many years, joined Offa's Dyke Rifle Club in August 2003. He was a regular shooter at Llansilin range and will be greatly missed by us all. Our condolences to his family.
