FUNERAL SERVICE FOR FORMER BRIGG MAYORESS TODAY

Brigg will say its farewells to Carolyn Sykes - the former Mayoress - at a funeral service in St John's Church today (Tuesday) at 12.30.
Carolyn died just two months after her husband, Tony, a former Town Mayor and long-serving councillor.
Tony and Carolyn took over the Black Bull, in Wrawby Street, in the mid-1980s and worked very hard to make it such a popular town centre hostelry for a good pint and good value meals.
Carolyn gave full support to Tony during his year of office as the town's first citizen about 10 years ago.
Later, they went to live abroad for some years before returning to Brigg.
