RIP Helen Cubitt

We were saddened to hear of the passing of VSOP, Helen Cubit,

We were saddened to hear of the passing of St Mary's Old Girl, Helen Cubitt.

Helen Mary Patricia Cubitt, who attended St Mary's from 1954-62, died suddenly on the Thursday 16 March, from heart failure. She is survived by her husband David Parnaby, her sons Gavin and Fergus, and daughter Antonia (and son-in-law Philip). 

Helen had remained in touch with a number of Princethorpians throughout her life, they had formed part of a great host of family and friends, stretching over much of the world.

We extend our deepest sympathies to her family and friends.
