A service of thanksgiving for Norman Grigg
Norman was much loved and deeply respected across the Forest Circuit, and many of us will want to be there to give thanks for his life.
The service of thanksgiving will be held on Tuesday 1 December at 3.30pm at Walworth Methodist Church, 54 Camberwell Road, London SE5 0EW. Everyone who knew Norman is welcome. Open the church in Google Maps.
