Eulogy by Rev David Battersby for Tim Tomlins

Two certificates awarded to George William Glenister , who worked at Bampton Station, probably as Station Master. He lived with his wife in Church Street in one of the little cottages. It was Mrs. Glenister who was instrumental in introducing Vera Tanner to David Elward at one of the WI Hall dances during the war.
Mr Wheeler from Church street also worked at the station. Mr Maurice John, who lived at the house now named St. Johns in Broad Street, was the last Station Master.

2004 Programme for the Donkey Derby, annual event held on August Bank Holiday and organised by the SPAJERS. Proceeds from this go to the senior citizens of Bampton and used to provide a monetary Christmas gift and possible summer outing. The Donkeys are ridden by children in races, which are sponsored by local businesses and bets are made on the winners. Held in Sandford's Field with accompanying Fete.

John and his wife Lizanne have lived in Bampton for many years and for much of that time they were churchwardens and sacristans. They were a couple who just quietly did much for the village without fanfare. Lizanne made recycled cards for several years which were much sort after in the Vesey room. It’s good to know their three sons don’t live far away and promised John they would take good care of Lizanne.
