CHELSEA FOOTBALL CLUB - HOME OF THE SEAGULLS

OBITUARIES/TRIBUTES

YOUNG Dorothy (Dot) 6.2.31-15.3.13

15 March 2013
The club is saddened to receive news of the passing of Life Member Dot Young.

Dot made her initial connection with The Club in the mid-sixties when her son Neil started playing. Buddying up with Gene Williams (Tommy’s wife), she set about restructuring the canteen in a big way. Home- made food was the flavour of the day as Dot started at 4.00 each match day with the task of preparing soup, scones, coleslaw, muffins and sandwiches, not to mention ingredients for the hamburgers.

Dot joined the committee in her early years at The Club and remained involved in that capacity until her retirement in 2000.

Dot's last official engagement with The Club was the unfurling of The Centenary Flag in 2011.

A stalwart for many years Dot Young will be sadly missed.
