With sadness, we have to report that Lester Millin died on Thurday 27th November at the John Radcliffe Hospital. He had been ill for some time with cancer, and in the last couple of weeks his condition deteriorated rapidly. His contributions, not only to Cowley Chess Club but to local chess in general and to junior chess in particular, have been immense. He will be remembered by many with much affection, gratitude, and respect, and greatly missed.
Tributes to Lester appear in the current edition of 'The Chequered Board' (Issue no. 30 Winter 2008) which can be accessed from this website.
