Next Page


November 1950

Some of our friends will remember Mr. John Moir Kennard, who for some years lived in Maldon Road, and with his wife was a regular attendant at the Good Shepherd Church. For the past few years he had lived at Leicester whith one of his sones. At the end of September he passed on at the advanced age of 94. Mr. Kennard was a keen musician, and was even taking organ lessons when he was over 80 years old. He retained the spirit of youth almost to the last, and when over 80 was asked if ge Bowls replied "Why, that's an old man's game." He was buried at Loughton Parish Church, Essex, and Mr. Richards had the privilege of playing the organ at the Funeral. R.I.P.
