John Nicholson - Funeral - 14th June at 11:30am

Phil Mason has received the details from John's widow, Barbara.

John�s funeral will take place on Thursday, 14th June, 11:30am at St Andrew�s Church at Potterhanworth. There will be open ringing at Potterhanworth from 11:00am to 11:20am after which the tenor alone will be tolled to bring John into church. Following the service a band of ringers from the Cathedral will ring as John leaves the church. Open ringing may follow for a short time.

The cremation will be at Washingborough Cemetery at 1:10pm and the wake will be at Washingborough Hall Hotel, Washingborough, LN4 1BE. People are more than welcome to come to one or all three events. Please can people indicate to Phil Mason if they will be going to Washingborough Hall, so that they will have an idea of numbers. Also please indicate if you have any dietary requirements.

During the committal service at Washingborough Crematorium the bells at Washingborough Church will be available as the Family and friends return to Washingborough Hall for the Wake.

It has been requested that there be no flowers but instead donations to Prostate Cancer UK. Hopefully, it will help others to find out they have the disease before it is too late.

Barbara wishes to thank all of you for the love and support you gave her and John during his illness and also the continuing warmth of your thoughts to her, Claire and Dawn since he passed away.

Phil Mason
