In memory of Jon Fitz
In memory of Jon Fitz who disappeared tragically on July 26 2003. |
Jon Fitzsimmons was a zoology graduate of Bristol University (UK). He joined the university canoe club in his first year and quickly became a very keen paddler and a key member of the canoe club. He later became a member of the club committee. Jon's friendliness and his enthusiasm are what most people will remember him for. He had many friends and was a great person to paddle with. He graduated in June and was planning a round-the-world trip starting this autumn after some paddling in the Alps.
Jon drowned tragically on the river Landquart in Switzerland on July 26 2003.
My sympathy goes to his family and all his friends, especially James, a good friend of Jon who was paddling with him that day.
You will be missed, Jon.
