Her younger brother Jonathan had died in tragic circumstances. He was quiet & unassuming with a love of photography & kites. He worked with Jacqui in SA making and designing kites for Windsong Kites. He loved coming to Dieppe Kite Festival and enjoyed the company of the Gits. So it seemed appropriate that we said farewell to him in a very special way. Jacqui & Peter met with some close friends on the cliffs above Palm Bay on Thanet 31st July 2016 The unique UK/SA kite was the only piece of colour in the clear bright sunlit sky "Sharing The Love" with friends & family assembled and angels, doves & flowtails in the sky If you care to see a beautiful & moving video of the occasion please Click Here (large file 79.86MB) If your browser cannot play the video properly, please copy the URL and paste it into Windows Media Player or MS Edge On the last Sunday of the Dieppe 2016 festival, after sharing a meal with her GOG friends, Jacqui slipped away to a quiet spot on the beach, where she committed some of Jonathan's ashes to the sea. She took the last of the ashes to South Africa, to scatter near their father's home. Our thoughts and hearts go with her - "Share The Love" February 2016 - Waiting for a call...
