The Leader of Wrexham Council, Ron Davies, has paid tribute to Ruabon Councillor Barrie Price, who died suddenly on September 13, aged 66.
Cllr Davies said:
“Barrie Price was a long standing councillor, who gave outstanding service to the Ruabon ward – as well as the wider Wrexham community – for many years.
“He also served as Co-Chair of the Finance and Performance Scrutiny Committee, where he led meetings in a positive and effective manner.
“Councillor Price was employed as a Control Room Manager with Dee Valley Water prior to his retirement and that his interests included golf, politics, religion and gardening. He was also a long serving Member of Ruabon Community Council and an Elder at Hill Street Presbyterian Church in Rhos.
“We are all deeply shocked by his sudden death and I am sure the entire Council will join me in paying tribute to Barrie and passing on our condolences to his family and friends at this sad time.”
