Hullo

Jon Carpenter's funeral is on Wednesday June 30th at 12pm, at the North Oxfordshire Crematorium, Tackley, OX5 3ER.

There are some spaces remaining but numbers are limited due to covid-19. Please email benaldo1975@gmail.com by midday tomorrow (Saturday) if you would like to attend. If there are more people than spaces then we will pull names from a hat.

The service will also be streamed online. Please email benaldo1975@gmail.com if you would like the link for this, rather than attending in person.

Please email - don’t reply to this post, thank you.

Jon's coffin will also be driven through the streets of Charlbury, route and timings below. Some people who knew Jon primarily through books will be gathering in front of where dad’s bookshop used to be on Market Street.

Jon would have appreciated this event being used as a fundraiser - if you would like to make a contribution in Jon's name, there are three donation pages:

- Charlbury Refugee Action Group: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/rememberingjoncarpentercrag

- Motor Neurone Disease Association - https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/rememberingjoncarpenter

- Lawrence Home Nursing - https://www.lawrencehomenursing.org/donate/

Finally, thank you for the many kind words we’ve received, remembering Jon and his presence, generosity and commitment - they are very heartening and gratefully received.

Many thanks

Jon's family - Angela, Ele and Ben
