John’s funeral is at 11.45am on Thursday 1st March at Basingstoke Crematorium, after which there will be a celebration party at the Winchester Club, Worthy Lane, Winchester.  No dress code.

The Club will be sending a floral arrangement, to which all are welcome to make a contribution. Otherwise, family flowers only, and any donations to the British Heart Foundation, c/o Co-op Funeralcare, 10 High Street, Eastleigh.

In addition to holding a minute’s silence at this weekend’s games, we would like commemorate John’s memory more fully, and welcome your suggestions about how best to do this.
