Shipmates, Further to the post below, the wake will be at the Marquis of Granby following the service.
Rhonda Hopkins would like to know the number of shipmates attending the wake; she has to give the Marquis of Granby the number of people attending by Sunday 4 October. If any shipmate is planning to attend the service please contact S/m Roy Dean at Dorchester Branch to let him know.
Some sad news from Dorchester Branch:
Shipmate Derek Hopkin’s niece, Rhonda Hopkins, has been in touch to inform us that, sadly, Derek has Crossed the Bar.
The funeral is at the Weymouth Crematorium at 1215 on Thursday 8 October 2026. She would like to invite any friends that he had in the Weymouth and Portland branches to the service and wake.
