Passing of Tibor Gonczol

Post by Spencer »

While recovering from an operation for bowel cancer, Tibor passed away last night - heart attack.

Well known as a coach in Australia and India, where he set up the formal coaching structures in both Countries.
Tibor served for many years on the ISSF Pistol Committee.

We shared the loves of good food, good wines and Rapid Fire Pistol.

I'm very sad to hear this, Tibor spent a lot of time with us in New Zealand and was very close to my wife and I. We were still in close contact with him as recently as last week.

He was completely devoted to ISSF Pistol shooting, Rapid Fire (my favourite event) most of all.

I will miss him, as will everyone that knew him.
