Mrs
Olive Simpson
dies
OFFICIALS AT Bournemouth C A championship show were staggered
to learn of the death of their Hound group judge Mrs Olive Simpson
only two days after she judged at their show.
The news came in a brief phone call to the showground which
said that she had been found dead at her home near Llanelli,
South Wales last Monday morning.
A former breeder and exhibitor of Afghans and Salukis under
the Akbalkan prefix with her husband Denys, she was appointed
as a replacement judge at Bournemouth show only last week when
Mr George Johnston was unable to judge.
She was treasurer of the Afghan Hound Association of Wales for
17 years and was a former joint secretary of the Royal Welsh
A S dog section. As we go to press no funeral details have been
announced.
