Ms Margaret Macpherson
It is with great sadness I advise people of the sudden death of Ms Margaret Macpherson.
Margaret was attending the Royal School of Church Music Summer School in Adelaide and was found dead in her hotel room last Thursday, 7th January. She has been a most significant member of the Bathurst community through her work as Executive Director Library Services of the Charles Sturt University, a member of the All Saints' Cathedral Parish (singing in the Cathedral Choir, as Secretary of the Bells Committee and former Parish Councillor), a member of the Allegri Singers and her involvement in many other community activities.
Funeral details are not available at this stage, however it is expected that a service will be held sometime during the week commencing 18th January.
