Thank You
Our church is extremely fortunate to have had such a loyal and enthusistic choir of singers over the decades. I would like to thank each one of you who have been (and continue to be) part of Spalding Parish Church Choir. Often when members have left - for whatever reason - I did not get the opportunity to say Thank You for the time that you gave so freely to the choir. Some of you have been members for many decades, some for a few years, and others have only stayed for a short time - a couple of months or weeks. All of you have made contributions to the choir in your own way - and so Thank You for being a part of our choir, and of our church.
This page lists all choir members over the years since 1981.
Members are listed in the years in which they joined the choir, apart from the first section which lists all those who were in the choir when I took over in April 1981.
LP refers to lower parts (Alto, Tenor or Bass)
(Names in brackets are where a member only stayed a short time during that year.)
Names in italics are where members could only attend intermittently.
+++ refers to choirmembers who left the choir, but continued to return for special events.
The total membership of the choir shown is taken from January of each year, but obviously fluctuated throughout that year.
Please let me know of any typos, errors or omissions.
