Richard Jeffery
Mr NORTHE — On a more sombre note, our community has lost two extraordinary individuals recently, which has left our community reeling. Richard Jeffery was a pillar of our community, and his family business, Jeffery’s stores, was an iconic feature of the Traralgon township for many decades. Having a lifelong passion for health and fitness, Richard was a dedicated runner and a participant in the very first Traralgon Marathon back in 1968. In the 1990s he switched his passion to cycling, completing over 60 events across Australia. Richard was also very active in his Rotary work and such a kind, gentle and respected man. Our sincere condolences to his beautiful wife, Elizabeth, and all the Jeffery family.
