Kathleen Webb


Quent's mum, Kathleen Webb sadly died on 17th November 2011, aged 86.

Batchworth was very dear to her heart. Her 3 boys, Duncan, Vincent and Quentin, were all scouts there and the family was very heavily involved in building the current Scout HQ. Kathleen organised the jumble sales for many years and continued to serve at them well into her eighties. She contributed enormously to the Group and was recently sent a thank you for her years of service, from the Chief Scout, Bear Grylls. Quent gets much of his energy, joie de vivre and generosity of spirit from Kathleen.

She touched so many at Batchworth over the years, both those that knew her and those that never had that special honour. There are children and adults that smile today due in a large part to the things she accomplished in her life.

The funeral service will take place at St Mary's Church, Rickmansworth, on Friday 2nd December at 2pm. All welcome. Family flowers only, donations if desired to Cancer Research.

Kathleen will be sadly missed by Batchworth Sea Scouts, past and present.
