Buckland
Death and Funeral of Mr H. Gilby
Quite a gloom was cast over the village on Sunday, February 20th, when it became known that Henry Gilby (Nenny) had passed peacefully away the previous night. Though in failing health for some time, his end was sudden, at the age of 61 years.
Much sympathy has been expressed with his wife and two daughters in their sad loss. Always ready with a word and a joke - he will be missed by many.
The funeral took place on 24th February (Thursday) at 3 o'clock.
Beautiful floral tributes were as follows - "For Dad" from Mum and the girls; From Brother Albert, Liza and Nephew Harry; For dear dear Grandpa from little Daphne; With sincere sympathy from Mrs and Miss Mitchell; In loving memory of Uncle Henry from Nieces Agnes and Addie; With deep sympathy from all members of the Women's Institute and friends; With deepest sympathy from friends of the Football and Cricket Clubs.
The funeral arrangements were carried out by Mr Wilson, of Barkway.
