In memoriam - Susan Hampshire.



We would like to offer our sincere thanks to Brian, Liz, Claire and Christine and the whole of the Hampshire family for their generous support and donation in memory of Susan Hampshire who passed away at the beginning of March this year. Their donation of £1500.00 was made by their many friends and family, who knew how important the Diocesan Lourdes Pilgrimage was to her.

Susan started travelling to Lourdes with annual Salford pilgrimage in the mid-1960's. After the birth of their children, Brian and Sue returned to Lourdes in the 1980's demonstrating her total commitment to the pilgrimage through organising, fund-raising and inspiring other people to visit the shrine of Our Lady. Even through ill health Sue continued to support the pilgrimage, her most recent contribution being to organise a dinner to help support the work of the recently created Families Group.

In 2008 Susan was presented with a medal for over 25 years service.

Recently Sue had taken a great interest in helping the pilgrimage to renew the pilgrimage banner. This donation will be used to help further that project in memory of Sue and her work.

Eternal rest, grant unto her O, Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. May she rest in peace. Amen.
