Vale John Karafiloff

The Club is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of former Club President and a man who was instrumental in securing our former ground, John Karafiloff. Sadly, his wife Rada also passed away.

John passed away a few days ago at the age of 94. He served as Club President in the 80’s. His contribution to the Club cannot be understated.

We send our condolences to his family.

May he rest in peace. Bog da go prosti.
