We are deeply saddened to report having just received the news that our good friend and colleague Ron "Casper" Beech passed away this evening.  We received the news from his daughter Jennifer and will pass on details of funeral arrangements and other information as soon as we receive it.

Ron served in the Bermuda Police for 33 years, from December 1968 to July 2001 when he retired as Sergeant.   He was both an avid rugby player and rugby fan, an unforgettable character, and he and Charlotte were regular attendees at ourExPo functions. We send our sincere condolences to Charlotte, Jennifer, Andrew, and their family.

UPDATE  -  We have been in touch with Charlotte who has advised that Ron will be cremated in Canada and his ashes will be shipped back to Bermuda where it is likely that a brief funeral service will be held at a venue to be determined.  Ron asked that his ashes be interred at the Police Cemetery, and this would likely be followed by a reception at the Police Club.  We will advise as soon as we hear confirmed details of these tentative plans
