HASLEMERE Rotary president Roy Wylam presented Don Luck, representing the British Heart Foundation, with £500, the profits of a joke book published in memory of Steve Lovell.

Mr Lovell was a long serving member of Haslemere Rotary and a former president, and the donation was made from the first book sales payment received for ‘Lovell’s Laughter Lines’, assembled by fellow rotary club members Rae Boxall and John Miles.

Mr Lovell ran the Pet and Garden shop in the town High Street for seven years with his wife Ann and subsequently ran his own conference business. 

Sadly, he passed away in Cairns while on holiday to Australia and New Zealand to mark his retirement.

• Profits from ‘Lovell’s Laughter Lines’, which costs £5, are going to British Heart Foundation, Macmillan Midhurst and  Haslemere Rotary Club charities. To buy a copy email rae@rae boxall.co.uk
