Peggy Ward
We were very sad to hear that Peggy Ward a long-time member of GSA passed away on 1st July after a short illness. Peggy was born in the Forest of Dean and after WW2 started teaching training in London and later taught in Primary schools in Gloucestershire. At one time she taught in Painswick village school and remembered bringing the children to the now Painswick Art Centre for lessons. She lived in Pitchcombe near Stroud with her husband Mervyn who was the Church Warden at St. John the Baptist Parish Church for many years. She was a popular member of the village and ran Art Classes there. Peggy always had a dog and when her last dog died, she took on a cat but said it was never the same. Peggy was a very talented artist, a gentle person and was a faithful member of GSA. She will be missed by many.
