FOLLOWING the death of my beloved wife Elaine, a service of thanksgiving for her life was held in December. The collection and all cheques sent afterwards in lieu of flowers were to go to the Dorothy House Hospice, Winsley.

I have now received official confirmation that the sum of £2,012.71 has been received as a tribute for Elaine's wonderful and most useful life to our community. Thanks to you all for helping our community, just as Elaine would have wished.
