Through the columns of your newspaper you may wish to report the death of Malcolm Wallace, after a long illness, former Tied Trade Director of Watneys Phoenix Brewery, here in Brighton for many years.

Several senior licensees in the Brighton area, and indeed, in the whole of Sussex, will no doubt remember Malcolm with affection.

He helped many a licensee take their first steps into the trade and was always on hand whenever they got into any sort of difficulty.

He had a keen sense of humour and was always the first to support any charitable cause.

A personal friend, he will be sadly missed. There is an obituary in Saturday’s Daily Telegraph.
