Unfortunately due to circumstances out of Gerry Marsden’s control, Gerry had to cancel his performance at the Swinging Sixties Ball at Wentworth. Gerry’s friend and famous, 60’s singer, Dave Berry, kindly stepped in. Red Canyon would like to take this opportunity to thank Dave Berry and his wife Marty for attending and performing at the ball, we are grateful that your friendship and support continues.
Dear Sarah,
Unfortunately I am the bearer of bad news. Due to an extended tour of the Middle East, Gerry will not be back in the UK until October 2nd and will therefore be unable to attend Your 60’s ball.
Both Gerry and I wish you every success and would be delighted to help with any other functions, schedule permitting. Once again have a “FAB” evening
Yours sincerely
Derek Franks
