Reg Skinner (BGS 1938-43)
Reg Skinner died on 20 April 2014. He had been a student at Boston Grammar School between 1938 and 1943. He leaves his widow, May, son Paul and daughter Ann. May and Reg lived at Wrangle.
Reg worked at Barclays Bank and later at GH Kimes of Wrangle, where he was in the office until his retirement. He was a churchwarden at St Nicholas' Church, Skirbeck and a server at the church until his last illness.
In recent years Reg and May enjoyed stays in their caravan at Thornton le Dale, North Yorkshire.
There was a requiem mass on Thursday, 8 May 2014 at St Nicholas' Church, Skirbeck, followed by a funeral service for family at the Boston crematorium.
Paul Townshend (BGS 1979-86) died on 25 May 2014 following a long illness. I hope to publish a proper obituary soon. In the meantime, the main purpose of this brief article is to inform those who are interested of the details of his funeral.
