Dorothy Blackwell

Very many people were shocked and saddened to learn of the sudden death on 23^rd January of Dorothy Blackwell, aged 65.

She was well known in the village, having worked at the Post Office and Shop for many years. She moved to Helmdon from Sulgrave and attended Helmdon School. Most of her life she had lived on the Weston Road with her husband, Sid. A former president of Helmdon WI, she was a wonderfully kind lady, devoted in so many ways to all her family, and showing great courage in later years. She is so very missed by her loving family and friends.
