Molly Snow


Kerren Simmonds (2's 57-66), Chair of the Old Girls Association until it was subsumed into the CH Club, writes:

MONDAY of this week (9th November) saw the funeral in West Sussex of Molly Snow, née Florence Maria Eccles, 5's 22-28, and mother of two Old Blues, daughter Rosemarie (now Varley) and cricketer son John - who features elsewhere on this blog.

Molly died in a nursing home in Littlehampton two weeks ago, and the writer of this contribution to the blog has been in contact with/visiting Molly for the last 20 years, since we attended the same church in Rustington.

Molly was 98 when she died, and all through her life lived out and fulfilled her Charge. Two of her grandsons (Simon and Nick Varley) are also Old Blues. Simon is a consultant anaesthetist and Nick is a secondary school teacher.

What an Old Blue family - and what an example to the rest of us!
