It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Brian Kennett, the original ‘Teddy Bear’, and longtime partner of Patricia.
As many of you will know, Brian’s passion for live music and dance led to the development of ‘Teddy Bear’s Gig Guide’ many years ago. We’d like to thank you all for your support over the years, and we wish you all well at this time.
With love,
Patricia
