Otto Weber

The NRA have been advised of the passing of Otto “The Duke” Weber, a longstanding member, and more recently an honorary member of the City Rifle Club. Otto died on Saturday 16th November, following cancer of the oesophagus. Given the option of further prolonged, uncomfortable treatment, Otto chose to let nature take its course and passed away in his sleep. His loving, caring wife Evelyn was by his side.

Otto was a true gentleman and serious competitive shooter on firing points around the globe, mainly Bisley, Canada and California. Otto was a member of the 1974 USA Palma Team.

He will be remembered not only for his shooting achievements over so many years but also for great companionship both on and off the range and his dry humour.

Our thoughts go to his wife Evelyn, his family and his friends.
