Steve, Ruth, and everyone at Sedbergh Golf Club are deeply saddened by the passing of Dally.
While we fully respect Dally's family's wishes for privacy at this difficult time, we wanted to share just how much he meant to us, the Golf Club team, and the many members who had the pleasure of knowing him.
Dally came to work for Steve almost by chance. After giving him a lift home from Kendal, Dally, in his typically colourful language, asked if there was any work going at Ingmire. Steve's reply was simply, "I think we should be able to sort something out."
It was at Ingmire that Dally's exceptional craftsmanship as a skilled stonemason quickly became evident. His legacy will forever live on in the very walls of Ingmire Hall, standing as a lasting testament to his talent, dedication, and pride in his work.
In 2000, Dally followed Steve and Ruth to Sedbergh Golf Club, where his hard work, determination, and unwavering commitment helped create the club we know and love today. His contribution to the club cannot be overstated, and he will always be remembered as an important part of its history.
As a club, we would like to honour Dally's memory by creating a seating area dedicated to him, along with the planting of several trees in his name.
If anyone would like to contribute towards this tribute, please come and speak to a member of the team. Any support would be greatly appreciated as we celebrate the life and legacy of a truly special man.
