It is with great sadness that we mourn the passing in her 100th year of our Honorary Member, the lovely Dora Leighton, on Wednesday evening after a short stay in hospital.
She will be greatly missed. But I am many of us have some lovely memories of her humour, resilience and delightful character.
The following message sent to all clubs in SI Midland Chase from Region President Carol Bailey says it all really:
The most senior member of SI Midland Chase, Dora Leighton (SI Cannock), passed away peacefully on October 7th in her 100th year.
Dora was an active Soroptimist until the end. We will have fond memories of her as she was intellectually astute and always remained interested in Soroptimist matters, giving us the benefit of her wisdom.
She will be sadly missed.
Kind regards
CarolBailey
Regional President
