From Steve Hillier at KPRC:
"Hello fellow cyclists
Please read this email carefully as it is not our intention to cause any upset. It relates to attendance at Ray Dare's funeral and wake, and is being sent to everyone in the Phoenix and those who have confirmed their attendance at the funeral or funeral and wake.
Due to Ray’s longevity and achievements as we all know he was a popular cyclist and this will be seen by the numbers present at his funeral.
In short we have far exceeded the number that Leatherhead Golf Club can cater for and accommodate at the wake. The funeral service at Randalls Park is not restricted.
Therefore, upon the instructions of the family and with the agreement of the Phoenix, we respectfully make the following request.
If you have not personally known Beryl Dare for a good number of years, will you please consider not attending the wake at Leatherhead Golf Club.
Just along the road from the Golf Club, heading north, is The Star Public House (Kingston Rd, Leatherhead KT22 0DP). You can have food and drink there, although the club has not made any arrangements with the pub at this time.
If you wish to visit Beryl at the Golf Club, after spending some time at The Star, you would be welcome to visit later in the afternoon.
Could you please reply to this email and advise whether you are going to the wake or are prepared to go to The Star, or neither.
Thank you in advance for your understanding at this difficult time."
Please note that for the purpose of this correspondence with Steve the email address is:
raydaresfuneral@gmail.com
