Long time IMOC Club Member Dick Mason from Tralee sadly passed away today. A mechanic by trade, he was a great man for Minis and drove his own mid 60s Mini solo all the way to Longbridge in the UK not all that long ago for a big Mini event there.
Reposing at Gleasures Funeral Home Tralee 2pm to 4pm this Saturday 14th.
May he rest in peace

Re: Sad News
Dick was one of the earliest members of the Southern Region when we set it up in the late 90s. His maroon Mk1 was a regular sight at IMOC events including the very first MTM back in '99. I'll never forget chasing behind Dick and Anne to catch a ferry in Holyhead after the IMM in Birmingham. Flat out on the A55 and we made it with minutes to spare. Dick was a quiet man but always had a great smile on his face. Ill health meant that he hadn't been active in recent years and it was a shock to hear the news last night. My sympathies to Anne and all the family.
