Dick's widow, Sue, has written to me with details of a Celebration of Life to which BCMH members are invited. The details are below.
Please reply to Sue suetennant21@talktalk.net direct by 30 October.
Date: Saturday, 13 November 2021
Venue: Brokenhurst Manor Golf Club, Sway Road, Brockenhurst, Hampshire, SO42 7SG. The nearest railway station is Brockenhurst Brockenhurst Train Station | South Western Railway
Time: 3pm
As Sue and her daughter Gillie will be providing an afternoon tea, please confirm to them by 30 October giving:
1) Your name and all those in your party,
2) Any dietary/mobility requirements that they should be aware of
3) Whether you would like to stand up and share some memories or sentiments about Dick
4) Stating that you are a member of BCMH.
Sue and Gillie are aware that not everyone may feel comfortable with public speaking so they are also arranging for a memory wall on the day where written memorials can be pinned and which will allow everyone to browse the wall and read people's words in a moment of quiet reflection.
As many people may be anxious about being as Covid safe as possible they have arranged seating at tables of 6 where food will be served.
