Anthony CHAPLIN Obituary

Living out of the country have only just found out of Tony's passing..was always going to pay you a visit..but very sad to find out that the time has ran out.

Chris and Family, I am sorry for your loss.
Its been a few years since we saw each other but I remember him fondly.
Tony and I started in the Fire Service on the same day. He was a stand up man and a great guy to be around and work with.
He will be remembered with respect and fondness by his fire service mates.
Regards Alan Taylor
