April and George Celebrate Platinum

Many Congratulations to April and George Rushbrook, who celebrate their 70th Wedding Anniversary on 4th October 2022. They are pictured, right, as they are today, and below, a slightly younger version!
April and George became resident in Sunbury in 1982 when George, a Senior Police Officer in the Metropolitan Police retired.
They enthusiastically embraced the community, April volunteering to deliver Meals on Wheels, George an active committee member of LOSRA., and their daughter Sandra, working with Age UK and Sunbury Neighbours.
They both pursued craft hobbies. April is a talented artist and florist. George spent many hours making beautiful Tiffany type lamps, that is… when he was away from the golf course, where he enjoyed many competitions as an ‘Old Codger’ at Abbeymore Golf Club.
Lately April’s health has deteriorated. She has been lovingly cared for by George with the help of their daughter Sandra who is devoted to her parents. Their elder daughter, Julie is a midwife tutor and lives in New Zealand.
