On August 16, CHARLES STROUD, aged 75, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family and comforted by the rites of Holy Church.

He will always be remembered by his wife Doris, his daughter Katya and her partner Jean Pierre, his son Matthew and his wife Martha, his grandchildren Francesca, Jacques, Alice, Beatrix and Oliver, his sister Anita, in-laws, nephews, nieces, relatives and friends.

The funeral cortège leaves Mater Dei Hospital on Friday, September 5, at 8am, for the Basilica of the Assumption of Our Lady, Mosta, where Mass will be said at 8.30am, followed by interment at Lija cemetery.

The family would appreciate if instead of flowers, donations are made to Puttinu Cares Fundraiser in Memory of Charles Stroud via Facebook.

Donations for this cause will also be collected during the funeral Mass.

Lord, grant him eternal rest.
