Pauline Midgley
At the June 2022 meeting tribute was paid to late, former member of WI – Pauline Midgley.
Tarina led the tribute saying that she and other members attended Pauline’s funeral at which Jerusalem was played in honour of her WI membership. Tarina then played the Katherine Jenkins version of Jerusalem. It was very moving, and Pauline will be greatly missed by all those who knew her.

Jean Morris
Service of Dedication for Memorial
A service of dedication took place in South Kyme on Sunday for a sculpture created in memory of John and Jean Morris.
The work of art – a carved swan, almost 6ft in height – is positioned on the riverbank opposite the couple’s former home.
It was created by a local artist following a fundraising drive by the parish council and villagers.
Jean, a former chairman of North Kesteven District Council and long-standing parish councillor for the area, died last year, aged 87. She was predeceased by her husband, John.
In addition to the swan, four other sculptures have been sited along the river bank – a damselfly, an otter, a pike and a toad.
