I have just returned from the funeral of Dorothy Halfhide held at Loughborough Crematorium. A small gathering of family and friends attended. The congregation heard dot's grandaughter, Kathleen, read a moving story entitled "Memories of my Granny". The service included two hymms, 'Make me a channel of your peace' and 'One more step along the world I go'. After the service I was invited to attend The Ceders Hotel for refreshments. I was able to meet and talk with the family along with two Goldings old boys, Bob Pegg and Dick Rowen, who attended. RIP Dot.

Hello Dave a donation will be on its way soon. I wonder if you have any more Goldonian mags, there is one with a photo of me in it. I dont know which year it was. If you can find it in your vast archive it would be great to have a copy.
Hello Bill Roe, I dont think I remember you. You were in Mount Stephen House, I was in Pelham house then. The crystal sets we had then was a good form of entertainment for us then. We would take turns on it we only had the one in our house as far as I can remember, but it was great. We never had TV'S in those days. Great to hear from you Bill and maybe I will be in touch soon. With regards to you all.
Richard.

Letter sent to Mrs Halfhide Daughter today.
Hello Jeannette, you don’t know me, but I was once a Goldings Boy 1962-65,Somerset House under Skipper Culver. Pop has e-mailed me about your Mother Mrs Halfhide and we would all like to send our condolence’s to you and your family as she was one of the outstanding characters that made our time at Goldings that little more enjoyable. Every year the standard your mother made for the Cadets takes pride of place at our re-union, what a wonderful piece of devoted workmanship, and is virtually in the same condition when she made it.
From all Goldings Old Boys and Staff.

Message from Pop.
I have Dot’s daughter Jeannettes address. If anyone needs it please contact me. Jeannette on her card she sent me said donations to Barnardos or flowers if prepared. I think a spray of flowers from the Goldings boys would be a wonderful gesture.
