Obituary – Gwynne Higgins
22Mar
It is with great sadness that we have to report that Gwynne Higgins passed away peacefully on Tuesday aged 84 years. Gwynne was a great character and having bought and sold horses all his life since he was a lad at Two Park Farm, Gorsely near Hereford he was known to so many people both up and down the country. He hardly missed attending a race meeting in the Wales and West and Hereford and Borders areas and raced many good horses over the years such as Bruce Baron. He was responsible for getting a great many people involved in the sport he loved and would always be willing to loan a horse for someone to drive and take their test on as it used to be in the old days. He was known for his stories, his marvellous memory of the old breeding lines and his smile. Another old character has gone and he will be sadly missed by many this summer. Funeral details will be published later when confirmed.
