Frances Moseley, RIP

It was with the deepest sadness that we learnt on Wednesday that Cllr. Frances Moseley had passed away the day before.
Frances was much more interested in serving the community than she was in petty politics and that meant she could and would work happily with other councillors of like mind regardless of party difference. For this reason both Nick Kilby and I rapidly found common ground with her on many issues of concern in the Neighbourhood and became her friends as well as her colleagues. As one who had represented Alpha Road estate when it was part of Surbiton Hill before 2002, I was especially pleased at the attention she paid to the estate and its residents.
We worked together on the Housing Consultative Committee and the Resident Participation Review Group. She kept up her interest in both as long as she could and seemed in fine form when we last saw her only last month. We all hoped that she would be able to carry on, but, sadly, it was not to be.
Our deepest sympathy goes to all her family and friends. May she rest in peace!

Frances will be sorely missed. Although a liberal, she supported me in many planning applications if she believed in our objections. It was with great sadness when she told me not long ago how far the cancer had spread. May she rest in peace. My sympathies to her family.
