It saddens me to report that Chris Croft passed away this morning. Whilst never a member of KKF he was a widely known and respected member of the kiting community. My condolences go out to his family.
I'll post funeral details when I know them.

Details of the funeral from Denise... Hello everyone, Thank you for all your flowers, cards and messages of support, sympathy and kindness, I’m really touched by your compassion and concern for me in my time of grief. I have taken great comfort in reading how much Chris was loved, respected and missed by all that knew him. He has certainly left a big hole in my life that will never be filled. The celebration of his life is open anyone who wishes to attend to celebrate Chris’s well lived life with me and his family, so please come and share stories and memories as we send him on his final journey. The date is now confirmed as Thursday 28th March at Wealden Crematorium TN21 0FX at 2.00pm followed by a reception at The George and Dragon, Lamberhurst TN3 8DQ to which you are all welcome. For anyone that can’t make it due to a prior commitment and for a few of you that live abroad the service will be available to watch live and on demand afterwards for a period of time via a link TBC nearer the date It will no doubt still be an emotional day but come with a smile and in line with his final wishes please dress very casually in bright colours (no black or navy ). We all know how much Chris loved his colourful crocs so if you have crocs, sandals, flip flops or trainers please also wear them in his honour. Family flowers only but should you desire, please make a donation in his memory to our chosen charity's via the link www.funeralguide.co.uk/obituaries/120647We have also set up the following link for you to upload any photos or footage taken over the years that you would like to share of Chris, so please share this post with anyone who might have some that maybe I haven’t seen before especially if you have some of his early kiting years before I knew him 1drv.ms/f/s!AgTa3ygV6dulgZla9VQ9htiGdNBFZg?e=B22d0N Finally, please RSVP to help me with the catering numbers Thanks Denise x
