Peter and Richard - our sympathy and prayers are with you on this sad occasion of the loss of your mum. Although we live in Stoke-on-Trent, I lived in Woodburn Drive from the age of one (1949) to age six. I've always kept in touch with Mrs Sanderson over all these years and she has been a source of encouragement to us in faith and in life. As a little boy, before you were born, I used to ride up to the Sanderson's house on my trike, knock on the door and ask your mum "Is your daddy coming out to play!" I meant Mr Sanderson!! He used to sing 'Old Man River' in a deep voice to me. Happy memories of a wonderful lady! Cedric (and Jean) Barber
