A Lot of Thank Yous

A sincere thank you
We at St Botolph’s would like to thank '’Mary & Doris Hodgson” for the beautiful bench that Mary has donated to St Botolph’s.
This was in memory of Mary’s cousin, Jean Wormald.
Jean was a Brown Owl in the Brownies at St Botolph’s for 20 years, 1954 to 1974. She was also a regular member of our congregation before she moved away from the area.
If you are passing any time please pop in and see this lovely bench, it is a few yards away from the big gates in the church yard.
Thank you, Mary
