It is with regret that I advise of the passing of Nancye McKenzie on October 3rd.
Nancye was the Secretary of the SSAA Newcastle Branch from 1981 until 2002 and a Life Member of the Branch for her many years of constant service to the Club. Her administrative abilities reached beyond the Club as she assisted with a number of disciplines over her many years of involvement.
Nancye was also a highly respected competitor and had success at State and National Championships in Hunter Class and Rimfire Benchrest.
Rest in Peace Nancye and thank you.
Kath & Tony
Thanks for putting that on here Tony.
I remember Nancy and Jock McKenzie as valued members of the 'benchrest family'.
Nancy was a good shooter and had the habit of shooting her 100 yard groups right up in the black square of the business target. When I queried her on this she said it was because that put it right on the money when the targets went out to 200 yards.
RIP Nancy - you won't be forgotten.
I fondly remember the passion she had for rimfire.
RIP Nancye
Rob.
