Jon Laughrin, England— Jon Laughrin passed away last week, leaving the community in mourning. His legacy of service and compassion was felt throughout the village, where he was known for his unwavering dedication to its inhabitants.
In the wake of his passing, a fundraiser has been initiated by Annie Laughrin for the replacement of a memorial bench located at the top of Pewsey Hill, which was tragically destroyed in an act of vandalism. This bench held special significance for many, offering a serene view of the White Horse and serving as a gathering place for the community.
Annie expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support from friends and neighbors, emphasizing how Jon’s life touched so many. "Dad was never happier than when serving this incredible community," she shared. The fundraiser has raised £120 towards its £600 goal, with contributions from various donors, including £50 from John Benstead and £10 from Melanie Sherrard.
Plans for the new bench consider durability and sustainability, opting for a wood effect recycled plastic option to prevent future damage. Any additional funds raised will be directed to another community initiative or cancer charity in honor of Jon’s legacy.
The community’s response has been a testament to Jon’s impact, with many sharing their stories of his kindness and the joy he brought to their lives.
Our hearts go out to the Laughrin family during this difficult time. May Jon’s memory inspire continued acts of kindness and community spirit.
