Angie died on the 5th January, just a day
short of her 60th birthday. She had been
suffering from cancer of the gullet for the
past year, receiving chemo- and radio
therapy. She was thankfully not in great
pain and was seen in good spirits most of
the time.
Husband Dennis died just 3 years ago. Our
sympathy, of course, goes to their only son
Darren.
She was born in Butley, where her dad
worked for the Forestry Commission.
Unfortunately her mother, who was a
housewife, died when Angie was 14. She
then had the responsibility of bringing up
her, two younger sisters and brother.

For a while Angie worked on the screens at
Bawdsey Radar Station, before marrying
Dennis. After living in Alderton for a while
they then moved in to Lodge Road, where
they started a pig farm together. For 5
years this meant living in a caravan, where
Darren was born, until they built the
present bungalow. Dennis also worked as a
night watchman at the prison.
Apart from the occasional trip to Bermuda
to see one of her sisters, Angie loved
nothing more than to work on her garden.
She loved Hollesley and was a real local
girl.
