Dear Friends,

Jeremy Gibbs has provided us with the following advice:

"I now have details of the “arrangements” for Gwyneth. Please feel free to pass them on to staff and members of the community who worked with and/or knew her. Would anybody who is planning to attend please make contact with me, so that I can give full directions?

A celebration of Gwyneth’s life will be held in Stamford, Lincolnshire on Wednesday 14 August 2019 at 2.30pm. There is parking on site and more spaces on the road outside.

Dress: cheerful.

A private cremation will take place prior to the ceremony, at Gwyneth’s request.

At some point after the ceremony, I hope to email a selection of the tributes to those who were unable to be present. Would anybody who would like to receive this please let me know?

Don’t hesitate to let me know if you need any further info.

Best wishes

Jeremy

+++++++++++

Please do not hesitate to contact Jeremy directly as he has taken great comfort and joy from the many messages you have all sent to the List.

Unfortunately, Caroline and I will not be able to attend as we are presently in Sydney and do not return to the UK until mid October. At that time we will make arrangements to see Jeremy and give him a hug. In the meantime, those of you who can attend, I know that you will represent our wonderful world-wide Omnis family well. Gwyneth was a great friend to all of us.

kindest regards to you all….
