Dear Catherine,
Thank you so much for letting us know. I was a student of Cynthia's for many
years and then had the honour of taking over one of her residential courses.Â
Although we had lost touch, I still find myself quoting her when I am teaching
and I will miss her. We have so little time to make our mark on the world,
Cynthia has left a legacy of skilled lacemakers, but above that memories of a
sense of fun.
Do you know if there is a charity to which we might contribute in lieu of
flowers?
Jane Wright (one of her girls)

Dear Spiders
It is with great sadness that I have to tell you that my dear friend and
colleague Cynthia Voysey, passed away on 13th May and I'm sure that many of
you reading this email will have attended a class in Honiton lace with
Cynthia
at some time over the years, as she was an exceptional tutor of international
renown. She had been in slow decline for the last three years suffering
from
Altzheimers.
Her funeral will take place on Wednesday 27th May at 11.30am at Exeter
Crematorium, St Peterr's Chapel, family flowers only. There may just be one
or two from the UK living close enough and would like to attend her funeral.
