sad news of the passing of maurice feltham

Maurice Feltham 1939-2017

The following sad news appeared on the CMC Motorcycles Facebook page today (Friday, 20 October).

‘It’s been a sad day today at CMC Motorcycles after Dad passed away in his sleep last night aged 78. In 1975 he took a gamble to finish being a teacher of Metalwork Engineering at Middlecroft School at Staveley, Chesterfield, to purchase, with all his and Mum’s savings, a small motorcycle dealership named Staveley Motorcycles. With no business experience, Dad built the foundations to what CMC has become today, something to which he was immensely proud of.

‘Only on Wednesday night we went to see him and he was in high spirits despite his battle with Parkinson’s and dementia and it was great to see him having a laugh and remembering good times.
Dad’s funeral will take place soon and we will post details here for those who would like to attend.’

Everyone at BDN sends their condolences to Ross and the entire family.
