Friend of the blog Mick Roseblade has asked me to share the sad news that local lady Nora Brayne has passed away – Nora was well known for her work with Brownhills Scouts which she undertook with her late husband, Eric.

My sympathies and sincerest condolences to all who knew and loved Nora, she was a fine lady of whom the community was proud, and very fond. Nara will be sadly missed.

Hi Bob,

Wondered if you could circulate this announcement re Nora Brayne’s passing and funeral arrangements.

Nora lived in Poole Crescent Brownhills along with her Down Syndrome son Michael for many years and was heavily involved (with her late husband Eric) with the Brownhills Scouts based in Barnetts Lane.

Attendees at Streetly Crematorium are welcome  on Wednesday.

Cheers,
Mick Roseblade
