CONGRATULATIONS to Una Bevan, who celebrated her 86th birthday with a special service at Pendock Old Church organised by her many friends.
Miss Bevan is now resident in a nursing home in Newent, but was a major figure in the benefice for a considerable time, playing the organ at Hollybush and Birtsmorton and leading the congregation with her strong and beautiful voice.
Everyone sung with great gusto and found this quite emotional as Una has been a large part of our community life, watching some of us grow up, helping us with our schooling and education.
Thank you to Roger T for playing the organ and Roger G for leading the service.
