Sad UFO News
Â
It is with much sadness and regret that we have to report today on the untimely death of Georgina Bruni, author of the book You Can’t Tell The People, which was a study of Britain’s most famous UFO incident: the Rendlesham Forest event of December 1980.
I first met Georgina around 1997 or 1998 and always had a good time hanging out with her at conferences for drinks and/or dinner. I last saw Georgina in the summer of 2001 when myself and Mark Birdsall, editor of Eye-Spy Magazine traveled to London, and she kindly opened up her home to us and let us stay with her for the weekend.
Georgina was a generous and warm soul and she will be missed by all that knew her. I’m sure Georgina would want us to celebrate her life, and so I raise my glass to her and her memory.
Her good friend Nick Pope has today put out the following statement:
“I am very sorry to have to report that Georgina Bruni died at the weekend, following a long illness which she fought with great courage and dignity.
“She led an extraordinary life and tried her hand at a wide variety of jobs, working variously as a dancer, fashion designer and nightclub manager. She travelled extensively and at various times lived in Jersey, Italy, Hong Kong and America, before settling in London in 1992. She wrote poetry, designed a positive thinking course and founded Hot Gossip, an online magazine. She was a former director of the Yacht Club, where she was involved in hosting social events for MPs, diplomats and MoD officials. Later on she became a PR consultant and ran a social club, Le Club 2000.
“Georgina is best known to this List for her research into the Rendlesham Forest incident. She consulted on and contributed to various TV documentaries on the subject and her book on the case, You Can’t Tell The People, won her praise not just from the UFO community but from former Chief of the Defence Staff Lord Hill-Norton and from Gordon Williams, who had been Commanding Officer of the twin bases of Bentwaters and Woodbridge when the incident occurred.
“Best wishes, Nick Pope.”
