THE life president of the Morris Minor Club, Greasby’s Burt Taberner has died.
Burt became well know for his devotion to his Morris Minor, a car he continued to drive from new until his death, at the age of 87, on June 24.
He had been suffering from a cancer-related illness and his funeral will take place at Landican Cemetery on Tuesday, July 8 from 11am.
Those driving Morris Minors are invited to meet at the Twelfth Man pub at 10.30am for a procession to the funeral.
Burt’s niece will be inheriting his car.
Those attending are asked to donate to St John’s Hospice rather than send flowers.
