Tributes to Christo Come Flooding In

Great Dixter, Thursday 2nd February, 2006.

Hundreds of cards and messages have been received at Dixter following the death of Christo on Friday last week. The team at Dixter, and the family, are very appreciative.

Christo was cremated in private this morning, according to his wishes. His ashes will be returned to Dixter in due course.
There have been many wonderful articles and obituaries written about Christo in newspapers all over the world. Here is a selection that are freely available on the web. Please let me know if you find any others that I have not yet seen and I shall add to the links below.

This is the piece Christo wrote in The Guardian shortly before his death to launch The Great Dixter Charitable Trust appeal.
