It is with deep regret that I report the passing of Tom Lowndes this morning. Sincere condolences to Ellie & all members of his family, we are all diminished! I know I and his network of friends will miss him.

Sad news indeed. Tom battled his illness with determination and dignity, staunchly supported by Elly and a lot of his friends. I know that I will miss his presence on the range.
The thoughts and deepest sympathy of the Fitzroy- Caulfield and Grantville Rifle Clubs go out to Elly and family.

I'll never forget Tom's gutsy performance at Canberra last November. A strong character who will be missed.

He was a great friend with a great sense of humour.
Unfortunately we are losing too many of the real characters of the sport, they were the one that made this sport fun and want you to be part of it.
