Maria and Peter first came to Chearsley in 1981 and were married in the church here in 1983. Her daughter, Emma, went to Chearsley school before it closed. Maria enjoyed fitting into village life, at times working at the pub, the shop and running the youth club. She was also a founder member of the Chearsley Cherry Bumpers, a ladies morris dancing team and an active member of the WI. She loved flowers and gardening and until very recently was still arranging the flowers in the church with Joy and her team.
Deepest sympathies are extended from the village to Peter, Emma and the family.
