AFL Victoria and the Box Hill Hawks are saddened to learn of the passing of VFA/VFL Life Member and Box Hill Football Club stalwart Barbara Gibbs.
Barbara and her husband Ron were honoured with Life Membership of not only the league but their club as well due to their dedication and tireless work for Box Hill, with a combined 122 years of committee service.
The tremendous efforts of Barbara and Ron around the Box Hill FC were recognised in 2007 when the main gates at Box Hill City Oval we named after the couple.
Barbara’s devotion to the Club was evident last year when she continued to attend matches to support her team despite poor health.
AFL Victoria sends their condolences and best wishes to Barbara’s family and friends and the Box Hill Hawks during this time.
