The Annual Meeting learnt that we now have over 200 names on the Church Electoral Roll. The Treasurer reported that we have been eating into reserves to balance the books. We are grateful for plans for the Fete on 28 May and the Open Gardens on 16 June. We thank all who help throughout the year with music, cleaning, ringing bells, serving on committees and generally being a good neighbour.

Burial of the Dead
27 April Herbert James Winfield aged 89
A full church was just tribute to this true son of Ewelme; scholar, sportsman, soldier, electrical linesman, family man and church man. Herbie, Jim or Herb – we will cherish his memory in the choir, in the bell tower and in the Horticultural Society. Mr Winfield served in Burma but his heart was won by Cecily with whom he created home and garden at Martyn’s Way and Manor Cottage. Herbie had a keen eye and a strong grip, nimble of foot and broad in mind and he gave of his best to Ewelme. Of Ewelme he was the best. We express sympathy to Ann, Richard and Elizabeth, the grandchildren and the little ones; and also to Connie and Joyce, last of the seven children brought up by Jack and Lizzie Winfield in Kingspool Cottage.
