Please let Jane and the family know if you are planning on attending in person on the day via this email address so that we have an idea of numbers. [email protected]

There is no dress code, please wear what you feel is appropriate and how Kevin/Chalky would remember you, however he did have one request that he would like to see lots of shorts and Hawaiian shirts.

The wake will be held at The Jovial Sailor, Portsmouth Road, Ripley, GU23 6EZ. A seated area inside the pub will be reserved as well as a large outside covered area so you might want to be prepared and take a coat with you.
