Percy Duff, 1922 - 2011, treasurer of Kendal〔(www.kendaltowncouncil.gov.uk )〕 Borough Council from 1967, until April 1974 when he became deputy treasurer of the new South Lakeland District Council,〔(www.southlakeland.gov.uk )〕 holding the position until his retirement in 1982. As his son Michael Duff said at his funeral "Percy Duff was a lucky man. He was lucky to survive scarlet fever as a child; he was lucky to survive in the Western Desert in 1943 when the man standing next to him was killed by a mortar and he wasn’t; he was lucky to be happily married; he was lucky to suffer from no illness in a long life and he was lucky to live in Kendal for all that time - a place that he loved." Percy Duff was involved in many clubs and societies some of which were: * The Westmorland Motor Club〔(www.westmorlandmotorclub.co.uk )〕 of which he was President and who organise the Barbon Hillclimb * The Alfred Wainwright Society〔(www.wainwright.org.uk )〕 * The Stephenson Locomotive Society〔(www.stephensonloco.org.uk )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Percy Duff」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
