Rolfe 2 Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 I have just been informed that Dick Hawkins( From Buckingham) the net maker and true countryman sadly passed away on Monday. Dick was a good friend of mine..... and him and i swapped many a yarn together and i always looked forward to meeting him on his stand at the country fairs. I have (and use) some fantastic hemp nets he made and although he was a traditionalist he did move with the times and was an ardent supporter of the newer techniques. I know he is known to a lot of you on the THL so unfortunately I had to pass on this very sad news. Rest in peace Dick........and my condolences to all his close friends and family. Rolfe.
