Joan Birch

Post by Westyeltz » 14 Jan 2021, 20:34

Just heard the sad news from my Mum that Joan Birch has passed away within the last few days.

Joan was the wife of former Yeltz trainer, Fred Birch, and was for many years also seen helping out at the ground on matchdays, often in the tea bar. Both Joan and Fred followed Halesowen for many years until prevented from doing so by health issues, and I'm sure many will remember them. Sadly, Fred passed away a few years ago now.

Thoughts are with Kevin, Angela and all of Joan's family and friends at this sad time.

RIP Joan. God Bless.

I believe the service will be available for a couple of weeks afterwards.
