  • 21/08 Peggy's Thanksgiving and Memorial Service went really well on Saturday. There was a fantastic turnout, the church was packed. We shared some wonderful memories of Peggy and some of Peggy's story in her own words, sang some of her favourite songs and joined together in a bring and share lunch. Many thanks to everyone who was able to attend yesterday, it would have meant a lot to Peggy. Also many thanks to everyone who contributed to making it such a wonderful occasion and who took part in the service or helpe with the catering. Too many to list but all greatly appreciated.
