Dear Sheen Gate Choir
I am very sad to have to pass on the news that Jerry Wright died at the weekend. As many of you know, he was diagnosed with cancer last year, but, in keeping with his way of life, he still kept coming to rehearsals. At least until lockdown put paid to that.
Jerry was one of the original members of the choir, back when it was the choir for parents of boys at Tower House School. His powerful, resonant bass was a feature of the choir for all of our ten years.
His wife, Clare, is an alto in the choir, and she has asked that I pass the sad news on to you all. At some point, we will for sure be looking to sing something in Jerry’s honour and memory. Until then, please cherish the many happy memories of time with Jerry that make so many of us smile.
