The community of Narberth is mourning the passing of a former Mayor of the town, after town council stalwart Mrs. Ruth Platt sadly passed away last week at Glangwili Hospital.

Ruth was a ‘Narberth girl’ all her life, and served the community faithfully for many years as a town councillor and four times as Mayor (following in the footsteps of her mother Enid Thomas) supported by her late husband Mike.

She will be sadly missed by her brother Huw, sister-in-law Joan, nephew Barry, and the extended family and friends.

The funeral service will take place at Bethesda Baptist Church, Narberth at 12 pm, on Saturday, October 2, followed by cremation at Parc Gwyn Crematorium, Narberth, at 1 pm.
