Subject: RE: Obit: Ray Croll R.I.P.
The funeral will take place on Monday 11th November @ 12:30PM at Westerleigh Crematorium , Westerleigh Rd, Bristol BS37 8QP. 0117 937 4619.
The numbers wishing to pay their respects are likely to be huge for such a well loved person.
Ray's wish was for everybody to get together and celebrate with music & good cheer! The Shire Way community centre in Yate, with adequate parking facility has been chosen for our celebration of Ray, Venue: The Centre, Shire Way, Yate, Bristol BS37 8YS , 01454 273050 , is a short distance from the crematorium please refer to maps!
The venue will open from 6 o'clock in the evening & for everyone to bring a contribution for an intended buffet! Please ensure that you bring just enough of both savoury & sweet for your own consumption which can be shared with the other contributors and therefore cut any waste to a minimum. We are looking for volunteers to help from 5:30 to set up the venue for the intended buffet & table and chairs for the guests. Please contact Terry Helyar on 07913 246995 if you can help with this. There will be a bar provided where drinks can be purchased!
The Nova Scotia folk club which generally runs on Monday evenings will be closed that night at its home venue, and instead will be present at The Shire Way Centre as a mark of respect to Ray.
