I am sad to report the death of Gareth Williams on 25 January. Gareth was in his late 80s and had not played competitively for 40 years having previously been a member of a London League team, with a grade of circa 170.
He was a leading member of Chess Collectors International, author of "Chess Masterpieces" published in 2000, a regular contributor of historical articles for chess magazines and was the Exhibits Co-ordinator at the 1996 world championship match between Karpov and Kasparov.
