Final Farewell to Dot Beeson, Founder of The Swan Sanctuary

She leaves behind a wonderful legacy. May you rest in peace Dot. (image ...

Christmas Remembrance Window at Lodge Brothers Shepperton

These trees are adorned with cards containing messages to those that are absent, but are never forgotten by their families and friends. The Lodge Family difference is the bond we create w...
