10 Feb 09 - 06:43 AM (#2562545) Subject: Obit: Lesley Knight From: GUEST,George Henderson I am very sorry to report that Lesley passed away last Wednesday 4th February after a long illness. People may remember her as one of Briggs sisters from Gosforth in Newcastle where they used to perform as "the Brigands" singing in 4 part harmony. That was in the late 60's. She died peacefully after a long illness. RIP |

I have only seen her once since then. She was a fine singer with 100% dedication to the music. Condolences to the rest of her sisters. Dave Sutherland |
