Claire's best friend at school was Lesley Hawken. Lesley lived with her grandparents and Aunt Jean in the Leitchville Post Office where Claire spent many weekend sleepovers. When Jean's parents died, she took over the running of the Post Office and in her stewardship, the Post Office was operated for over a hundred years by the Hawken family. So her passing was a significant event for the village. We had traveled to attend the memorial.
Claire had the opportunity to catch up with friends from the past and learn more of the recent history of the village of her childhood.
