Peter Christie.
We were very sorry to hear the news of the death of Peter Christie, Torridge councillor, author and historian, and loyal contributor to “Buzz”. He wrote a host of articles over the years, all of which have been saved for posterity in the Buzz Archives, and many which can be found on this website. He was a loyal supporter of the newsletter from its earliest days in 2005, helping us with funding via his role on the Bridge Trust, Bideford Town Council and Torridge District Council. He answered numerous questions posed by our readers on historical matters and was the ‘go to’ source for many local history queries.
He was also a personal friend and an adviser in my other role as Bideford Librarian.
All of us at “Buzz” send his friends and family our condolences at this sad time. We will miss him.
Rose Arno. Editor, “Bideford Buzz”.
