TOM
WHEELER It is with great sadness I heard of the death of Tom Wheeler last
week, long
time warden and bookings secretary of the church hall here in the village.
Born in Shurdington Tom originally had a career in teaching that took him to
Brockworth, Germany and Watford.
My sincere condolences to his relatives and friends.
CHURCH FARM,
CHURCH LANE, SHURDINGTON. Pete Stamford a local resident from Marsh Terrace discovered an old
copy of the Echo
tucked away in his potting shed!!
I received this cutting from Sue Gardner at the Church Farm on 10th July 08
and
thought it would bring some memories to some of the residents who have lived
in
Shurdington for many years.
Can anyone shed any light on the artist G A Cox? He was a 19th Century
Illustrator. How did he happen to be in Shurdington? If anyone has any ideas
please
e-mail me - address is below.
