Cyril and me were at school together (QEGS) then he started work up Park Road and me, Audley Bridge. In 1962 I got a beat up Austin Seven / Mini 850cc. We got it rally ready and as members of Clitheroe Motor Club and Lancashire Automobile Club, we set about getting on with road rallying - of a fashion. ( and Sunday driving rests!) Encouraged by our dads - Howarth Bolton and Billy Bell, we produced a competitive car and hit on with events.
But over time Cyril became a belting navigator and co-driver, second to none. We had a few successes and some great times, including lots of fun and laughs with his dry sense of humour
Love and condolences to the lovely Margaret He will be sorely missed. Xx
