A Tribute to Isobel Mogg
Heads of the Valley Swimming Club would like to send our sincerest sympathy to the family of their beloved daughter Isobel (Issie) Mogg. Issie had been a swimmer at HVSC since she was 4 years old and only left last August to further her studies at Oxford university. She was a dedicated swimmer and was not only a club captain but an inspiration to many of our younger swimmers. There were many qualities that made Issie so special, her sense of humour, compassion, dedication and her encouragement of younger and older swimmers, her legacy will remain an inspiration for all at HVSC.
We were so lucky and privileged to have Issie at our club where she will live in our hearts and minds for a very long time and cherish our memories of her. Issie was an all round athlete and an excellent ambassador for the sport of swimming and she will be sorely missed. She will be forever remembered in our hearts and memories.
God bless you.
