PAWS August – Sad Farewell to Sue Copeland
Fond Memories of Sue Copeland
I am sure that most of you will have heard the sad news about Sue Copeland’s untimely death on the 15th August. Sue was a member of Peldon, Abberton & Wigborough W.I. for many years and indeed a founder member of PAWS.
It was a fitting tribute to her, that there must have been over 250 people who attended the service of celebration of her life on the 3rd September. Steve and her family did her proud and she would have loved it. The following are a few tributes from members:
Sue Copeland in Hong Kong 2008
Let’s remember Sue with a smile and the return of smile to us from a very talented, love for life lady. Someone you can say, I am so very pleased to have known her.
Sue was a wonderful, clever, sparkly lady and we will miss her.
I didn’t know Sue very well but know how much she meant to many people in PAWS.
I remember when I first met her she was so friendly and kind.
We will all miss her so much.
She was always so happy and smiling, a really lovely lady.
Lots of lovely memories of a very special lady.
Sue was always so cheerful and hardworking for so many causes, so full of sensible and new bright ideas, all held together with such a wonderful sense of fun and humour.
I am sure that we all have fond memories of her care and wonderful sense of fun. Thank you Sue, it was a pleasure to have known you.
Our next get together is on the 22nd September when Edward Lubbock and Sue Kidd will tell us about “Hot Air Ballooning”. Visitors are welcome at a cost of £5.00.
