CFZ PEOPLE: Joyce Howarth (1954-2014)


Joyce Howarth, our old friend, CFZ patroness and hedge witch, and second only to Tony Shiels, the most powerful magician I have ever met, has died suddenly and unexpectedly in her sleep.

I have known something was coming for days; there have been signs and portents a-plenty. Now I know where they were leading.

Goodbye, my dear. I love you and miss you more than I can say....

Farewell to Thee! But not farewell
To all my fondest thoughts of Thee;
Within my heart they still shall dwell
And they shall cheer and comfort me.                                 Anne Bronte

FORTEAN BIRD NEWS FROM THE WATCHER OF THE SKIES



What has Corinna's column of Fortean bird news got to do with cryptozoology?

Well, everything, actually!

In an article for the first edition of Cryptozoology Bernard Heuvelmans wrote that cryptozoology is the study of 'unexpected animals' and following on from that perfectly reasonable assertion, it seems to us that whereas the study of out-of-place birds may not have the glamour of the hunt for bigfoot or lake monsters, it is still a perfectly valid area for the Fortean zoologist to be interested in.

TODAY'S BIG CAT ROUND UP


The hunt for British Big Cats attracts far more newspaper-column inches than any other cryptozoological subject. 

There are so many of them now that we feel that they should be archived by us in some way, so we are publishing a regular round-up of the stories as they come in. 

The worldwide mystery cat phenomenon (or group of phenomena, if we are to be more accurate) is not JUST about cryptozoology. At its most basic level it is about the relationship between our species and various species of larger cat. That is why sometimes you will read stories here that appear to have nothing to do with cryptozoology but have everything to do with human/big cat interaction. As committed Forteans, we believe that until we understand the nature of these interactions, we have no hope of understanding the truth that we are seeking.

    The Gonzo Daily - Friday
     
    Yesterday afternoon I received the news that my long-time friend Joyce Howarth died unexpectedly in her sleep on Wednesday night. I had not seen her for some years but at one time she was a fixture at the CFZ. Nick Redfern affectionately partially based the character of 'Mother Sarah Graymalkin' from his book Three Men Seeking Monsters on her, and I wrote my song 'Hey You', which described "the wisest of all the wise women I know" about and for her. Her partner of 15 years, Steve Cummins, and her three daughters are constantly in my thoughts and prayers. Blessings be with you, my dears.
     
    This is particularly poignant for me because although she is far from being the first of my friends to have died, she is - I think - the first of my friends of roughly the same age as me who has died of natural causes. The others were all substance related, or died through accident or violence (mostly self-inflicted). As someone who is not in the best of health, Joyce dying suddenly at the age of sixty - only five years older than me - is somewhat of a shock.
     
    Rest in Peace my dear, sweet friend.
