Sad news has reached us from Dun Ard. Lady Mairgreg ingen Ghillebrath succumbed to pneumonia on February 12, AS LVII.
Mairgreg came to the SCA in the Shire of Dun Ard and quickly became a member of the community there. She was awarded arms by King Chrystofer II and Queen Salamandra on March 30 AS XXX.
Friends remember her for talent with needle and thread. Such was her talent in the clothier’s craft, that King Luther and Queen Lenore welcomed her into the Order of Golden Swan in December of AS XXXIII.
Her service to Dun Ard will be remembered as well. She gladly took to whatever tasks present needed to be done. King Eringlen III and Quee Alathea II inducted Mairgreg into the Order of Torse in recognition of her service to Dun Ard on April 17 AS XXXIV.
Though absent from our company for some time, Lady Mairgreg ingen Ghillebrath will be missed by all those whom shared her company. Mairgreg is survived by her husband, Lord Gwylon ap Owen and their daughters. May they feel the love and support that Calontir is sending them, and may they find peace in the memory of Lady Mairgreg.

Editor’s Note: My memory of Lady Mairgreg was limited. I invite those who knew her to provide more details that I can add to this memory.
