As many of our readers will already know, Mike Goulden passed away very unexpectedly this week. He went into hospital on Tuesday and died in the early hours of Thursday morning.
He was very well known to everyone in the village for the hard work that he put into keeping the shop going for a number of years and his involvement in the community in general. Most recently he was very active with Dales Housing and was a Committee Member for the Local History Society.
It seemed appropriate for us to put this note on the Blog today, as Mike has been a staunch supporter of Parwich.org and a regular contributor with photographs (including the one above) and comments; every Sunday as ‘our Weatherman on the hill‘ he supplied us with the Weekly Weather stats.
Our sympathy goes out to his brother, David and to his family and all the friends that he leaves behind. We will supply further information when we are able.
