Dorothy Gwendoline Pask (1925-2017)

With the deepest regret, we have to advise that Dorothy Pask, from Beckenham, died on 31 December 2017.

She had been ill for several months, and died in Coloma Court Care Home, Layhams Road, West Wickham, Kent. Her funeral service took place on 5 February 2018. 

Dorothy was the 6^th great-granddaughter of John & Mirabel Pask née Sparrow. She was the daughter of William John Pask, and Nellie May Woods.

Dorothy was a keen family historian and provided a considerable amount of information on the descendants of John & Mirabel Pask née Sparrow. She was very well known with researchers of this Suffolk family.

We had the pleasure of meeting her several times. She attended the Pask Family Gathering in Whepstead, Suffolk on 26 July, 2008. 

We are in touch with her niece, Laura, who lives in Canada. We are sure you will join us in passing our deepest condolences to Dorothy's family. We are honoured to have known her.
