Vice
President: Mrs. Mary Rose Mitchell
It is with great sadness that we report the death of
our Vice President, Mary Rose Mitchell, on September 22nd whilst on
holiday in Greece. Our deepest sympathy goes out to her husband,
Charles, and their family.
Mary Rose was instrumental in founding Stafford DFAS in
2002 and was our first Chairman. It was under her inspired
leadership that the Society quickly became established and developed into
the success it is today.
She will always be remembered for her great charm and
wonderful smile. We have lost a very special friend and staunch
supporter of our Society. She will be very sadly missed.
There will be a Service of Thanksgiving for the life of
Mary Rose at 2:30pm on Tuesday October 21st at St. Michael's and St.
Wulfad's Church, Stone.
Stafford DFAS
is Society no. 327 and held its first meeting on 24th April 2002.
The Society aims to increase
enjoyment and knowledge of the arts and to stimulate interest in the
preservation of our cultural heritage.
The Society will normally meet
