Brian John Lymbery OBE (1 Mar 1947 - 8 Aug 2018)

My first job was as a Field Officer with the Prince Of Wales' Committee in Cardiff where Brian was my boss. It was a huge privilege to work for him. Brian was wise, insightful & astute but who was also extremely generous, compassionate & blessed with a glorious sense of humour. He was a wonderful mentor to me at the start of my career. He taught me so much that has helped me through my life. I moved to Australia & lost touch but I have thought about him much over the years.

Brian and I collaborated in the early 1970's and remained in touch for many years. He was a strong and special individual - qualities which helped him to overcome many of the hindrances imposed by Parkinson's. He will be missed by many in the communities which he served.

In memory of Brian, an inspiring boss in Cardiff in the 1980s.

Sad news, a lovely man. As chair of Lewisham PCT, his vision and commitment were a huge influence behind the unique multi-agency children's centre Kaleidoscope, which opened in 2006. Brian also made a great personal effort to come to the Broadway Theatre to give evidence in June 2013 for our Save Lewisham Hospital Campaign's ‘People’s Commission’. Thank you Brian.

For Brian - a welcoming neighbor, good cook and kind and benevolent human being. May Brian be an example to us all how to live a positive life and think of others even when we ourselves have much to contend with.
From Simon and Steve.

In memory of Brian from Judy and Graham Carter

You were a source of inspiration to me - rising above all the physical limitations that Parkinsons tried to impose on you, with your indomitable will to enjoy life to the full - and that you did in heaps -
we will miss you

Somebody who showed all of us what you can do when you are determined enough to do it, and his local community particularly benefited from his enthusiasm and commitment.
