In memoriam…
The England Vicariate lost a great friend in Jane Farrell who died on December 6 aged 69 after a long illness.
Jane was a founder member of the Companions of Betharram, and represented Betharram laity at the Albavilla gathering in 2003, and came as a lay delegate to our General Chapter in 2005.
Born in Pontyprid a mining town in South Wales, she was a fluent Welsh speaker and very proud of her celtic heritage. She served the Olton community at various times as parish secretary, teacher, catechist, counsellor Eucharistic minister, reader, but above all as a trusted friend and confidante. She and her husband Peter were always active members of our Parish, as were her daughters Louise and Katie. They were all by her side when she went to the Lord on the Feast of Saint Nicholas.”
Read her interview in the NEF in October 2009.
