Stephen Arch Guild of Aviation Artists RIP

The following was sent to me by the Guild of Aviation Artists. Stephen Arch was the chairman of the Guild. I think that given our thread on Aviation Art, this is the most likely home for this piece of news. Blue Skies.

GUILD OF AVIATION ARTISTS

It is with great sadness that I have to tell you that Stephen died in the early hours of Sunday morning. He had been unwell since the beginning of the year and in the last few weeks he was diagnosed with cancer.

The funeral will take place on Monday afternoon, 3rd August at Corbets Tey Crematorium, Upminster (further details below). The Guild will arrange for a wreath at the funeral from us all. The Office will also co-ordinate a collection for those who would like to donate to a cancer charity.

Best Regards,
