Vale Bill Adriaans.
Yesterday we lost a true legend of the Club. Bill has been a supporter of the club for over 50 years and during this time held many positions of office including Assistant Secretary / Secretary and Treasurer over 24 years. Bill was awarded a Life Membership in 1980. He had a keen interest in all aspects of the Club – players, supporters and administration. May he rest in peace.
Funeral Mass will be held on Monday, June 5, 2023 at St Patrick’s Cathedral Ballarat. The family ask Life Members to please wear their badges and all BFNC supporters a touch of red & blue. Funeral will be livestreamed.
Every heart beats true
