Thanks to Ken Senar learnt the sad news of the death of Margaret, his wife, on Tuesday 23rd June 2020. On July 7th, at a quarter to two, her funeral cortege will depart from outside 9 Flacca Court, Tattenhall, CH3 9PW, for St. Alban''s Church, Tattenhall. There can only be two vehicles - the hearse and a single car carrying only Ken and his carer, for he has a worsening heart problem. Socially distanced seating in Church, where they wll arrive at two o''clock, is limited to a maximum of 40 souls, about 10 of whom will be close relatives. After the service, Margaret''s burial will take place in the extension churchyard where the appropriate ritual will be conducted under social distancing rules. Any donations you wish to make in memory of Margaret go to St. Alban''s funds. Family flowers only. A word about dress: NO black. Margaret stated emphatically (as she could) that she didn''t want carrion crows or magpies at her graveside! Again, due to Covid 19, as with other funerals, there can be no wake, or even refreshments. [No Backlog) (Click to see.) |

Due to the Virus Epidemic we have had to cancel the 2020 AGM at the RAF Club. Rather than miss an AGM after so many years, I will arrange to host a reunion using the Zoom softwre which is free to everyone. I will publish how to do it and this will be a unique occasion for shareholders from all over the world to be able to join in with no travel requirements. All that is required is a computer or a mobile phone. I will choose a date when the epidemic restrictions are eased so that those needing help to set up their devices will find it easier. It will probably be a mid-morning affair so that it will be at a time convenient to everyone. Watch this space!! |

Thanks to his partner Heather McIntyre we have learnt the sad news of the death of Flight Lieutenant Barrie Tonkinson, who was a pilot on 93 Sqn at Jever from 19May59 to 31Dec60. He suffered a stroke in October last year following which he had been in hospital and then residential care for several months, eventually succumbing to pneumonia. The funeral was on Tuesday 21st April 2020 but due to the epidemic only 6 mourners were allowed. It is hoped to have a memorial service later when the epidemic restictions are lifted.
