A poignant tribute has been arranged on the day a fitness instructor is laid to rest.
Chivonne Houston-Smith's passing left the community devastated with many paying tribute to the popular Galleon Centre stalwart.
The 60-year-old's funeral takes place tomorrow at Holmsford Bridge crematorium at 12.30pm.
As a mark of respect, no fitness classes will take place at the Ayrshire leisure centre on the morning of Chivonne's funeral.
And it was announced this afternoon that the funeral procession will pass the Galleon Centre where Chivonne spent many decades working.
The Galleon posted on Facebook: "As many of you will be aware, Chivonne's funeral cortege will be passing the Galleon Centre at approximately 12.10pm tomorrow."
In an emotional tribute, the Galleon announced Chivonne's passing a few weeks ago, saying it was impossible to put into words how much she will be missed.
The statement read: "The Galleon Centre would like to inform all of our customers and colleagues of the very sad news relating to one of our most loved members of staff, Chivonne Houston-Smith.
"Since taking the very first aerobics class in the galleon centre 35 years ago, Chivonne was an extremely popular instructor and well known by almost everyone who participated in aerobics and fitness.
"The news of the Chivonne's death has come as a shock to all her colleagues at the centre, and to our customers who look forward to their workouts with her on an almost daily basis.
"It is impossible to put into words how much she will be missed."
