In loving memory of Harold (Ivan) Price who sadly passed away on 27th October 2024
Donations kindly received for the Birmingham Dogs Home.
After the Funeral we will be holding a Wake at Stourbridge Golf Club in Pedmore.
Ivan was Husband to Lorna, Father to Ruth, Father in Law to Kev and Grandad to Reuben along with Brother to Joan and Geoffrey.
Worked as a Maths Lecturer at Dudley College and spent many happy hours on the Golf Course having been a member at Blackhills in Swindon Dudley. He even got to play some courses in Portugal after finally we managed to get him on an aeroplane.
A massive sports fan which included football, cricket, golf and horse racing. Every Sat included a visit to the bookies although he didn't really like anyone to know (sorry Dad). He was always on the edge of his seat on Saturday afternoons when the racing was on, but when asked 'which horse have you backed' he said 'I haven't had a bet on this race'! His radio also went with him on Saturday if he was out and about with his wife even to the point that he would disappear to get the half time and full time football results.
His grandson Reuben is hoping to follow in his footsteps and go into teaching although not in Maths but Geography as I think the Maths gene definitely missed the 2 generations!
We remember fondly his Blue Maxi Car in the 80's that seemed to myself and friends never reaching above 30 miles an hour. Then much later possibly late 90s or 00 in his Corsa came a speeding ticket which we could not believe which then resulted in a speed awareness course!
