Church-goers say goodbye to canon
Hundreds of well wishers flocked to Christ Church and St Marks in North Watford on Sunday (August 26) to bid farewell at a final goodbye service dedicated to long-standing canon Dick Lewis.
Reverend Lewis who served in Watford for 36 years held his last two Holy Communion services in the morning before enjoying a ‘poignant’ service, which brought together his favourite hymns and readings.
Despite retiring, Reverend Lewis will soon take up post of chaplain at Trinity Hospital in Retford, Nottinghamshire.
