We are so sad to hear of the passing of Sylvia, beloved wife of George Parsons, No.2 Commando.
Always cheerful, Sylvia supported the CVA from the start and was always in attendance when George officiated as the Chaplain at our Services.
Our thoughts and prayers are with George and his family at this time.
Requiescat in aeterna pace, Sylvia.
Nick

Very sad news indeed. George and Sylvia celebrated their 76th wedding anniversary last year !
Rest in peace Sylvia.
