Starbank says goodbye to Sophia

FRIENDS of Starbank Park will say goodbye to one of their own tomorrow when Sophia Abrahamsen is laid to rest.

Starbank Friend Janet McArthur said: “Sophia had the most amazing stories of Newhaven and the local area – she was so knowledgable! A legend who sat in the park in the afternoons, she could trace her family back to Danes who came over to build the Great Michael ship. She was such a dignified lady and she’ll be much missed. It’s very sad.”

Funeral service will be held at Ebenezer United Free Church on Friday 18 July at 2.30pm followed by Warriston Crematorium (Cloister Chapel) at 3.30pm to which all family and friends are invited. Family flowers only please.

TODAY: Cherry Blossom Picnic at Starbank Park

A quick ask for folks to bring baking donations and plants for the stalls please.

We are very excited about our picnic and look forward to seeing you all there this afternoon!
