I only found out you passed away, you were and still are the best. My card to you many years ago was no one can be 100% but you are 99.9999%. I was trying to find you and captain but i was too late. Have always thought you and captain were my best teachers a girl could ever have. through brownies and guides I loved you both with equal love. You officiated at my mums funeral many many moons ago.
I am truly devestated
.
Now in God's house

I am making on behalf of my family this donation in memory of wonderful Father Davies. He was one of the loveliest men you will ever meet and I have a host of fabulous memories, going back over 50 years of time spent at St Albans Church with Father and Mrs Davies and their family. He will be missed greatly and I send our love to Cathie/Andrew and Tim and your families. Kind Regards Laura Hall
