Wedding. We would like to say an enormous 'thank you' to all of you for making our wedding so special. So many of you worked really hard to arrange things for us. It was an unbelievably memorable day which we shall never forget. Also, thanks for an incredible 131 gorgeous cards and the many thoughtful presents. We had said no presents, but it was a joy to receive them and all so suitable. We are so very fortunate to belong to a wonderful and caring church, where life's 'highs and lows' are celebrated by the whole church family. With our love and thanks again. God bless. Di and John.

Note from May Goodwin. I would like to thank everyone for the cards, gifts and good wishes I received for my 100th birthday. You made me feel so special and loved. I had a wonderful time at my afternoon tea party. Grateful thanks to those who organised it and helped in any way. Thank you all for your continuing love and support. May.
