DECEMBER
On the 7th The flag flew for Sarah Perkins on her birthday. “Happy
Birthday to our precious daughter” said Mum and Dad. The 10th was
the Golden Wedding anniversary of Delcia
and Michael Humphries who counted the many blessings in their life
together. Ken Vowles asked for the
flag to fly on his 89th birthday and we obliged as soon as it was
possible because on that day snow came with a vengeance and getting to the flagpole
risked limbs if not life! It was also the 88th birthday of Kathleen Dean who usually gets her
picture taken by the flag, however, as soon as the snow permitted the flag went
up for both of you. Briefly on the Feast
of St Stephen (Christmas Sunday) the flag was raised to remember that Ron and Grace latham would have celebrated the fantastic
achievement of 75 years of marriage. Sadly Ron died a couple of months short of
this quite rare event. On the 29th Lesley Vowles celebrated his 90th birthday. Happy
Birthdays Les.
