Barry Strevens - resend

[Guest guest]

Following is a copy of a post from the American College of Vedic Astrology

(acva) I tried to forward earlier:

 

Dear CVA members, ACVA students and faculty:

 

It is with deep sadness that I need to inform you of the tragic death of

Barry Strevens - a member of CVA and BAVA and a successful ACVA Level II

graduate. Barry was one of the 7 people who were killed in the Berkshire

train crash last Saturday evening, November 6th. At the time he was on the

way home to Wells, England in Somerset, having attended Sanjay Rath's all

day BAVA Workshop at Mandeville Place in London.

 

Barry Strevens was 55 years old and lived with his lovely wife Jaqui and

their two beautiful sons Oli, aged two and Toby, five months in Wells,

England. He also has a 19 year old daughter and a step-daughter from his

first marriage. I have spoken with Jaqui, his wife, and passed on our

heart-felt condolences and requested details of the funeral arrangements.

The memorial service to celebrate the blessed life of Barry Strevens will be

held at the Haycombe Crematorium in Bath, England on December 1, 2004 at

11:11 AM.

 

 

Many of the ACVA faculty and students had just spent several days with Barry

at the Dallas ACVA Certification Conference in Dallas, Texas last month.

Barry was so happy about successfully passing the ACVA Level II examination

and was in the process of building his blossoming jyotish practice. Barry

was also long-time devotee of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and a practitioner of

Transcendental Meditation. On a personal note, he had become a dear friend

to me and many of the sangha in the Vedic Astrology community. He was always

smiling and brought great joy to the hearts of those people fortunate to

have met him. Barry was such a great soul and is deeply missed.

 

 

If any one wishes to contact his dear wife Jaqui; her email address is

jaqui108. Flowers and monetary donations to assist the Strevens

family at this time of need can be sent to Jaqui Strevens at her home

address: The Bungalow, Monterye Lodge, St Thomas Street, Wells, Somerset,

BA5 2UU.

 

Om Shanti,
