Yesterday afternoon some members of the Christ Church Singers went to the home of Daphney Finney and sang some Carols to her.
Daphney sang in the choir for around 20 years, and rang bells for 10 years. She even sang with us on our trip to Wells Cathedral in 2004!
Her grandson, Alan Crabtree, grew up in the boys choir. He is the man in the far right. Hard to believe that Daphney is 99 years young!!
She sang her part in the Carols and never missed a beat. If she had the music, I’m sure she would have given the descant a try, too. A Jolly time was had by all!!
Singers were: Claudia Gordon, Deb Smith, Susan Morris, Lucinda Harriss, Jeff Boyd, Isabelle Abbasi, Edward Morris, Daphney Finney (next to Deb), Delly Ozanne, Annie Drake, Alan Crabtree, and Carl Gage (yellow jacket in the front,)
