If you are attending this funeral and would like to find out more about what we do and what you might experience our ‘About Us’ page is a great place to start.
I remember with fondness the way in which Mary willingly provided excellent cricket teas at the Ashfield. Often stepping up to do more than her fair share.
I also remember the welcome she gave to my parents when they visited me in Brum. Along with Robin she invited us to Wickets 1 in Oxford Road and provided lovely food as well as a G&T or two.
Robin and Mary also kindly allowed us to go to Pallas Dos on several occasions which we thorough enjoyed.
