Roger Smith Memorial Concert
Over two hundred people gathered at St Mary's today, to remember our former Director of Music Roger Smith on the first anniversary of his death, and to enjoy a wide range of music provided by a fine team of organists, pianists and singers. Our thanks go to them all, together with many members of the congregation and others who worked hard to make this such a memorable event.
