In September 2004, I was honoured to be asked if I would officially open a meadow in memory of all the many generations of Brogborough families. It was so wonderful to see all the familiar faces who came along for the occasion.

This small, estate in Brogborough, where I first came when my parents split up, was a haven for me as a young girl. My husband Ken grew up there, as did many of our friends and members of our families.

For me, Brogborough will always be special. Memories of that magical place will stay with me forever, not least because of the people who have moved on or moved away, and are always remembered in my heart. Brogborough was where I met my Ken; it’s where I grew and flourished; and it’s where every member of every household was family.

I still have family there, and part of my heart will always be there.

I hope the meadow gives the children and families great joy over the coming years.

A big ‘well done’ to everyone involved, and a heartfelt thank you to Tracey, Claire and Madge, for making me part of that very special day.

God bless. Love you loads,

Josephine
