Mrs Sparrow (buried 17th September) had a very sweet nature and was much beloved by all who knew her. She survived her husband, the late Mr W D Sparrow, choirman and bellringer, by two and a half years. As a devout communicant and MU member, it was a great deprivation to her not to be able to get to church these last few months. She died peacefully in her sleep on a Sunday morning, having had her wish the previous afternoon of reaching the church and spending a few minutes there and at her husband’s grave. Peace be to their souls. Warmest sympathy to her family in their bereavement.
