Hambledon has paid its respects to two residents who contributed a great deal to village life over many years.
Ray Williams, who died in January, took over the running of the village shop with his wife Pat on his retirement in 1982 and together they were involved in a host of Hambledon activities.
Raymond Smith, who also died in January, played an important part in the development of Hambledon Cricket Club, the fete and many other aspects of village life.
The lives and achievements of both were celebrated at packed funeral services at St Peter’s Church.
This month’s Parish Magazine has reports on both and these articles can be found here.
