involved with St Paul’s Church and was a Church Warden for some years.
They both left the village to live in Hampshire about twenty years ago.

We regret to announce the death, on 1 April, of Mary Loveband. A Service of Thanksgiving for her life was held at St. Paul’s Church on 12 April.

We send our sympathy to John Prestwich whose mother died on 5 April
after a long period in hospital.

Cottage. The funeral was held at the Church of our Lady in Dunny Lane.
