All the committee were saddened. to read out Our Chairman Mr Ron Carter's letter of resignation at the committee meeting held 18th February 2007

Dear Ron,

You have been the strength of the club and  Chaired committee meetings with the greatest of  respect for all (the family). We have had some great debates  even before  the very first inaugural meeting which we set up at the match night way back in 1997. Ron you and your dear Kay were very much involved with the setting up of all the Kennel Club regulations to make the club recognised.

As a founder member of the club you have been very attentive working towards the betterment of the breed. It was you Ron who wrote the clubs ‘Code of Ethics’ and very well might I say.

Ron you was the first person to judge the RBT’s in the U.K. at Championship Shows when the breed was finally moved from the Import register.

Ron  your smiling face and  welcoming  words when greeting  our members whilst escorting them into the show venue again you will be sadly missed.

Always their to help on the Discover Dogs booth every year since the very first invitation from the Kennel Club. and much, much more, in other areas,  too many to mention.

We shall miss you a great deal  as Chairman but I do know  Ron  you will always be their for us,  anytime day or night and there will always be a place on the committee anytime especially  for you. Would you kindly accept the enclosed which was unanimously agreed upon at the meeting that you become  an Honorary Life Member of the Russian Black Terrier Club.

Ron God bless you,

On behalf of the officers and the committee, Yours sincerely, Janet Huxley Hon Sec

Mr Ron Carter resigned from his official duties as Chairman of the RBT Club and it is such a lovely letter I felt it should be published.

 “Words for once failed me, when I received the Honorary life membership certificate. What an honour, it really did knock me for six.
 Please thank the committee, the President, Madam Chairman and yourself for such an honour, I have a deep affection for the club, you know that Madam Secretary and for all those on the committee, we travelled the long road to recognition with all its twists and turns together not only as a team, but as friends, ( good friends )  I always felt that our committee earned the breed its recognition, and they deserved it though their hard work and efforts.
Once again my thanks, my best wishes to you all, and to the club, and to the beautiful Black Pearls known as The Russian Black Terrier”…
