Hilary Weir, long-standing member of the Friends of Larkhall Park and well-known local resident, died on Sunday, 2nd November, 2008.
Hilary had been involved with the Friends since the beginning in the mid nineties. She was our Treasurer for many years. More importantly she was a fantastic driving force, she recruited several of us, knew all the rules and regulations about charitable organisations, put us on the right track whenever we erred and took no nonsense from anybody. All was achieved with the greatest charm. We shall miss her.
A notice on the site of one of the chartities she was involved with tells us a bit more about her life and work http://www.thebrooke.org/content.asp?id=6964.

A memorial service to commemorate Hilary's life will be held on Thursday, February 12th, 2009 at 4 pm, at St James's Church, 197 Piccadilly, London W1J 9LL (for directions, see http://www.st-james-piccadilly.org/contact.html).
There will be refreshments afterwards between 5.15 and 6.30 at a nearby venue, to which all are welcome.
It would be very helpful if people who are planning to come could let her family know. If you contact the Friends of Larkhall Park we will pass on your message and any thoughts you may wish to express.
