The obituary notice of Margaret FRITH

Our sincere condolences to David and Family.
Janet and Eckhard Kaiser, formerly of The Chapel of Art Capel Celfyddyd, Criccieth
I have known Margaret since I was a student at Chester College, so I can look back over half a century from the early days of Brookhouse up to when I last saw Margaret around five years ago. The Friths were simply a dynamic duo at every level, but I was always in awe of Margaret’s tremendous stamina and unwavering ability to combine being a maker, whilst running a successful business and creating a loving family and home, each of which was a fulltime job in itself. I was sadly unable to experience Margaret as a mentor, but imagine she would have been an awesome teacher. A northern lass who would not suffer fools gladly, we also shared political and aesthetic values and views. From the public Margaret -- an internationally recognised Master Potter and Fellow of the Craft Potters Association of Great Britain, to the private wife, mother, grandmother and friend, everyone who met or knew her will hold their own image of the strong, slight, energetic, fun, creative woman she was. They say great treasures come in small packages, and how true that is. We will miss you and your generosity of spirit, Margaret dear, as well as your fizz and pop!
Janet Kaiser

Ceri and myself appreciate how much the passing of Margaret will mean not only to David, Daniel and Greg and their families, but also to the many people in the ‘pottery and ceramics world’ who came into contact with Margaret, and benefited from her Knowledge and friendship.
Please accept our sincere condolences.
