Dear Friends

We are heartbroken at the loss of our beloved Anne who was so huge a part of our life and ministry at St Mary's. Anne had in the past been a prominent member of the Church Council, a Churchwarden and active in so many areas of our Church life. There have been so many lovely emails describing Anne in such warm terms as a remarkable woman and a person of deep faith and prayer. Anne was also a person who gave great encouragement and insight on our journey together and was hugely committed to St Mary's and her many friends. We will miss her deeply.

The Funeral and Service of Thanksgiving will take place at St Mary's on Friday 12th January, at 2pm, followed by a committal at The Downs Crematorium for family and close friends from 3pm. The wake will be in St Mary's to which all are invited.

Donations in memory of Anne may be made via this site which we will forward in one total payment to Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders, a charity which Anne regularly supported.

If you would prefer to donate by cash or by cheque, rather than electronically, please contact Fr Andrew 01273 698601 or thevicar@stmaryschurchbrighton.org.uk

Farewell, dear Anne. Life at St Mary's will not be the same without you.

May you rest in peace and rise in glory.

Fr Andrew
