Annual General Meeting of Hilltop Community Association (Canterbury) (HCA) and perhaps we are embarking on a new and exciting period in the long history of this community. John Richardson has taken on the role of Chairman and I’m sure he will bring a vitality and business acumen to HCA. We wish him well and will support him from the pages of this website.  Go to the Hilltop Page for a brief community history.

Monday 4th

Today we remembered Dorothy (Dolly) May Keen’s life. In her 103rd Year, which was a remarkable achievement it was reason to celebrate a lovely lady who had lived a contented and full life.

This family has good reason to remember her fondly, being our neighbour for some fifty years or so.  She was always supporting, always helpful and always generous.  We missed her when she moved away but our memories of her will linger on.

R.I.P Mrs Keen
