Tim Meakin
"Summer Medley" What a wonderful evening of flower arranging presented to us by Tim. We had asked for some smaller arrangements and things our members could perhaps do at home and Tim talked us through some wonderful arrangements.     
Diane Edwards
It was with great sadness that we confirmed the passing
of our wonderful Treasurer Diane Edwards on 23rd July 2018
She had been fighting cancer for several months very bravely and with great determination.
At the request of her family the club created some beautiful floral tributes for her funeral on
Friday 17th August at St Mary Magdalene Church, Brampton.
Donations were also made on behalf of the club members to the charities she supported.
Diane was a very popular person and the church was filled with people who knew her
through her many different interests in life.
It was a beautiful service and a very fitting tribute to this wonderful lady.
