CHRIS JONES
Postman in Ruyton (on and off) for 24 years
On Saturday 4th August, Chris was given a rousing sent off from Ruyton Post Office when Joanne presented him with a cheque for £180 (not £140 as I reported earlier) collected from his grateful customers. The card which went with the money had kind words from the people whose days he brightened - and he had a van full of farewell goodies given him by other customers. He surely will be missed.
A new postman for the village has not yet been decided upon but he certainly has a hard act to follow. Chris was always cheerful, had a word for everyone he met and shared many a laugh with us as well.
