THE current Brighton EBA newsletter starts with Jane Davison’s tribute to the late Geoff Hopcraft, whose passing was reported in last week’s BN. “How can I say how much we will miss our dear friend Geoff Hopcraft,” Jane writes. “Geoff was a lovely man, family-committed, loved his boxing and the people in the fraternity. Brighton Ex-Boxers are going to sorely miss you, and we will celebrate your life when this government lets us. BEBA send our best wishes to Mavis, Peter, Rees and families. You had a real diamond there. He was always good fun. Geoff, we all raise our glasses to you. R.I.P, our dear friend.”
