A Message from Mike Morley's son, Tim

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Mike Morley on 19th January 2021 in Epsom Hospital. 

He left us after a valiant battle with an infection and subsequent Covid and will be sorely missed by his family. 

Mike once described himself as tight, mean and controversial. Whilst the latter is wonderfully true, we vehemently disagree with the first two. His generosity and thoughtfulness for others less fortunate than he was well known and acknowledged in his continuous charity support and fund raising, through the Hilly 50km to name just one. I hope we can continue this in memory of Mike and the amazing effort he put into this during the years he organised the event, which he loved so much. 

He had a passion and mischievousness for life that was infectious. Never afraid to say what he thought, he was quick to forgive and enjoyed nothing more than being on the open road, on one of his beloved bikes, with his peers. 

Once met, never forgotten. 

His funeral will be attended by family only, given current circumstances, however if you'd like to log in and pay your respects, we are hoping to be able to provide a link which will be posted so you can attend virtually on Thursday 18th February 2021.

We hope to be able to hold a celebration of his life once Covid Restrictions are lifted so that we can all raise a glass to him as he wanted. 
 
Tim Morley
