I remember Jessell as a great competitor & a man who knew his own mind. He was a great supporter of bridge both as an administrator & a player, He was a regular attendee at the Gold Coast Congress & will be sadly missed. Bon voyage Jessell - and may all your finesses work!
A great supporter of the New Zealand bridge congress .. and not too long ago won the NZ Teams, too! His late wife Carole is fondly remembered here in NZ too.
