Percy Sadler, former resident of Thornton Steward
Added on 23 September 2023
The website received an email two days ago, letting us know the sad news that Percy has passed away peacefully, following a long illness. His funeral is at 11am on 2nd October at Kirkleatham Crematorium.
Percy was born in Thornton Steward in 1931 and he lived here until he decided to join the police force and move to the north east at the age of 27.
He was very fond of the village and sent warm Christmas greetings to us all in 2020, followed by some wonderful poems, which he kindly agreed could be published on the website. They can be found by clicking the following link:
Rest in Peace, Percy.
