Peter Lemon, 4 December 1920 - 27 April 2025

   On Monday 23 June 25 we said farewell to Peter in a memorial service, lead by Reverend Alison and her husband Mark Newman . Relations friends and carers who looked after him at Foxbridge House, Orpington attended. After the service, Peter's ashes were placed with his wife Beryl, near to the chair he had given in remembrance. A musician from RAF Northolt sounded the Last Post.  Peter was a supporter of the Chapel, attended for many years and presented the Chapel with a St George Standard. He had cheated death twice in the war and had a great belief in Angels.

Everyone gathered for a tea in the cafe remembering Peter.
