| DEATHS |
We extend to Cath Collier (Mrs Fuller) 1957, Somerville, our smpathy on the death of her husband, Pat, in December, 2007. Cath now lives in Canada but she hopes to come to England soon to visit her sister,Marjorie.We are sorry to learn of the death of Barbara Millen (Mrs Bugg'e) 1933, on February 26th 2008 aged 91 years.
Barbara married Erasmus Bugg'e; he owned Bugg'e's Insecticide Factory on the London Road in Sittingbourne where Barbara worked in the Laboratory. After her husband died in 1978, Barbara sold the factory and went to live in Newcastle upon Tyne near her cousin whose mother, Moira Whiteman (4 years older than Barbara), also went to Ashford School and we understand they spent much time remembering their experiencies there .Barbara's cousin writes:
'Barbara often talked about her happy days at Ashford High School and as her executor I know she would want me to thank the Old Girls Association on her behalf for the school news she received from them over many years '
We are sorry to learn of the death in early March, 2008, of Mrs Fahy, 1970's Matron of Brooke Place, aged 91 years. Mrs Fahy was a strong and lively lady who much enjoyed her retirement Pub. lunches with Miss Earlam. Mrs Fahy spent her later years in Stelling Minnis living with her daughter, Jocelyn and husband, to whom we send our sincere sympathy.
