  Sadly Iris Sanders died Friday morning, but she is now at peace with the Lord and reunited with her beloved ones.  She will be one of the last people who have lived in the villages of Piddington and Hackleton and worshipped in the same Church all of her very long life (96years). She had been an active PCC member and Church worker for many years too, as well as a staunch supporter in her later years. Rest in peace. The funeral service for Iris will be on the 26 th of May at 11.15 am at St John the Baptist, Piddington, followed by her cremation and afterwards at Horton Cricket Club. The family have requested that people wishing to remember Iris do so by giving donations to Piddington Church in lieu of flowers.
