Charmain & Greg’s wedding – May 2008

1/5/2008

 
Charmain Mohamed and Greg Andrew kindly asked their wedding guests to donate to the JWCT instead of giving them presents at the ceremony on the 31 May 2008. Charmain and Greg, both good friends of Jeremy, having volunteered with him in Indonesia in 1993, helped raise £770 for the JWCT.

Greg said "
Jez [Jeremy] was an important friend to both of us . . .
Picture
. . . as we all met back when we were seventeen years old, embarking on a year's adventure in Indonesia. We loved him very dearly and he would have continued to be an important part of our lives. Neither of us felt like climbing a mountain or running a marathon, so instead we decided to get married to raise money for the charity. Jez would have been proud!"
Charmain added "I think Jez would have been tickled pink to hear that Greg and I finally got together after all those years. As our oldest 'joint' friend it was incredibly sad he couldn't share celebrating our marriage with us, so asking our guests to donate to the charity instead of buying us presents seemed the most obvious and natural thing to do."
