Barry Bridgestock of Artistic Coloured Stones sent an email advising that his lovely wife, Carol, has passed away. She had been bravely fighting a health battle but recently received stem cell treatment which was aiding in her recovery.

Then she got two types of Influenza from which she just couldn’t recover.

Anyone who has dealt with Barry knows what a special man he is. Life has thrown him some nasty curve balls but he has always been such a delight to work with.

I am deeply saddened for his loss.

Wow that is very sad, so very sorry to hear that they fought such an awfully hard battle and eventually had to lose like that.

I read it and my heart broke for him. So many of us have come to appreciate him not just for his affordable beautiful stones but also his down to earth and approachable personality. So it's especially sad to hear of his loss.

That's terrible news. Over the years I've bought a couple small things from him but he always struck me as such a nice person.
