 Gilbert Green RIP

Gilbert Wilson Green, who was a surveyor with the British Geological Survey and author of many West Country memoirs has died. 

He led many field trips for Bath Geol Soc and WEGA.

Dear All,
I am sorry to report that Gilbert died nine days ago in his home.  His
sons had been taking turns to stay and care for him over a number of
years as he became increasingly frail.
We all know he had an extremely interesting life of which we were a
part, from time to time, during the last 20-30 years. So if you have any
particular memories or these times, his family would appreciate your
writing a few words and sending them to son Robert (copied into this
email) as they compose his obituary. I certainly have notable memories
of our geological adventures!

Due to Covid restrictions, his funeral, in Edington Priory church on
30th October, will be attended just by his family, though we may have
the opportunity to privately visit the church prior to this date.

Regards.
Isobel
