My Dad Michele (Michael) Del Borrello was a member of SSAA No. 87387 from before 1995 and his hunting of Duck, Quail, Deer and Wild Pigs etc. was one of the things he loved to do most in his life. In the past he attended meetings of SSAA and took part in activities. He suddenly passed away just after his 77th Birthday on 28 March 2016. RIP dad and thanks SSAA.
