KIDDERMINSTER SOROPTIMISTS: A month of mixed emotions: On September 30, we received the sad news that our oldest and longest serving member, Eve Bowler, had died at the age of 98. Until her retirement some years ago, she had been Head of Needlework at the then Holy Trinity Girls School, Kidderminster. She was a remarkable person - and incredibly talented needlewoman - a devoted mother, grandmother and great-grandmother - a wonderful friend and also a very loyal Soroptimist for over 40 years – the last few as honorary member of SI Kidderminster and District. Knowing her has enriched all our lives.
On a happier note: this month we welcomed a new member Helen White and look forward to her active involvement with the various projects and club activities.
If you would like any further information regarding the club and its activities, contact Elke Jury 01299 266101 or email: kidderminstersorop@gmail.com
