The first of three "B,B, & BBQ" events was held at the Village Hall on Friday and much enjoyed by all who attended.
Two bands, Station 366 and The Jabs, provided excellent music, the bar did a roaring trade and, as usual in Denton, the food was very good. Thanks must be recorded to everyone involved particularly Helen S-P, the key organiser on behalf of the VH Management Committee.
Two more similar events, designed to replace the Village Festival this year, are to be held on August 18th and September 15th. Not to be missed!
Many Denton residents gathered at the Ellough Crematorium on Wednesday to remember and celebrate the life of Nigel Seamons. They joined Maureen and members of their extended family for a very moving ceremony with tributes from his daughters and a great photographic display with suitable musical accompaniment.
As usual on these occasions, we learned so much new information about Nigel's early life. How lucky he was to go to school in Bungay with the girl of his dreams, with whom he could enjoy the rest of his life. However, for most of us it was just wonderful to remember his involvement in so many Denton activities, including the Variety Club. The celebrations continued, very respectfully, with excellent refreshments at the Village Hall.
He will be sorely missed.
On 25th July the Beccles & Bungay Journal Website carried a special article on Nigel written by their reporter Terry Reeve.
