Thear
It is with great sadness that I have to announce the death of Bernard Thear. Bernard was very much loved and respected by his family and friends from all over the United Kingdom. Bernard sadly passed away on Saturday 27th February 2021 after being unwell for 10 months.
Bernard was born in Kendal on
24th November 1947, but eventually moved to the Hayes area in London and served his mechanical apprenticeship in the London Fire Brigade before eventually moving to Waddesdon where he worked for Douglas C Toy as a car mechanic. During his years in the Aylesbury area, he was also a successful motorcycle sidecar racer and competed in the Isle of Man TT. Bernard eventually joined a company called M&J Seafoods as a mechanic and van salesman and over 20 years, worked hard and became the Transport and Warehousing Company Director. After he finished with M&J Seafoods, he then worked for various motorsport companies travelling the world of which he enjoyed so much up until he became ill.
Bernard was married to Barbara Thear (nee Saunders) of which he had a son Shaun Thear. After the passing of Barbara Thear in 1985, he eventually met Maureen Willis (nee Tearle). Maureen had two children Nicola and Darren. Bernard and Maureen were married and lived their later life up in Scotland on the Scottish Borders. Maureen unfortunately passed away
