THE GOLDONIAN

GOLDINGS PERSONALITIES

MR. HAROLD PETHERBRIDGE

Mr. Petherbridge joined our staff as a teacher in the Shoemaking Department in 1945, and owing to indifferent health, retired pre­maturely in 1957. Although Mr. Petherbridge's stay with us was not so long, he nevertheless made his mark. Not only was Mr. Pether­bridge a first class teacher, he was also a great lover of music, and his vocal talents were appreciated by many choirs, as well as the local Operatic and Dramatic Society. His rich baritone voice much belied the fact that he suffered continually from a chronic asthma.

The funeral service prior to cremation was held at All Saints' Church, Hertford, on Wednesday, 17th January, and the School was represented by Mr. R Purkis.
