Udimore Village Voice
n A good number of friends and relatives attended Hugh Goddard’s funeral on Tuesday last week and helped to make it a memorable and fitting occasion. Many people had sent lovely messages to be written on cards, each one showing a British bird, and floral gifts to be placed on his coffin (arranged by Pam, with the help of her neighbour Sarah). During the service, moving accounts of Hugh’s life were given by Chris Fairman (who presided), and by Denis Crouch and Robert Wheeler. In the King’s Head afterwards the team in the kitchen laid on some excellent refreshments. Pam would like to thank all these people for their support and sympathy at this sad time.
