Being a ‘Coates’ boy – I had the priveldge to have lived opposite Vi from 1953 to 1962, she was a ‘lovely lady’. As a ‘very’ young boy she looked after me when my mother had to be elsewhere. Some 66 years later we would often ‘bump’ into one another in Whittlesey, and she always greeted me and everyone with a warm smile and asked how you were.
Violet Ellington you will be sadly missed by many – RIP
