Circus producer and star Struppi Hanneford has passed away.

Friends,

It is with deep regret that I inform you of the passing, this morning, of Struppi (Gertrude) Hanneford.  The circus world seems a different place without her today.  There is a void  that cannot, ever, be filled.   Fans of Struppi and Tommy Hanneford, and any circus they produced, would always enjoy the personal touch of the couple, who, it seemed, were almost always present. There were no walls between their circus and it's best fans.  Struppi always found time to chat up her fans.  Mere words do not suffice.  Our love follows you as you go ahead Struppi.....

Regards, 

Gary C. Payne
President Elect
