We are sad to report that Shirley Goring, the mother of Rye town crier, Paul Goring, died on Monday morning, August 12 , following a short illness. Many of you will have seen Shirley with Paul at various events around Rye as she was a great supporter of his work and loved Rye. Her ready smile and her interest in people’s lives and their news made her well-loved by everyone she came across.
As a result of her loss, and, prior to that, her illness, Paul has had to pull out of a few events which he had planned to be involved with, but he should be back in action again soon.
Paul says: "My mum was a lovely and well-loved lady, with a ready smile, and hugely supportive of her family. My sister, Caroline, and I will miss her dearly."
Shirley's funeral will be held on Thursday, August 29 at 3:15pm, at Hastings Crematorium.
