A new memorial bench has been unveiled at Sanders Garden Centre in Brent Knoll in tribute to a much‑loved regular customer who passed away earlier this year.
Burnham-On-Sea resident Charlie Hall, 97, and his late wife Doreen had been enjoying daily breakfasts at the centre ever since it first opened, becoming familiar faces to staff and visitors.
Doreen sadly passed away in February at the age of 94. Wanting to create a lasting tribute, Charlie purchased a memorial bench which was installed and unveiled at the centre this week.
Charlie says: “Ever since it opened, the store has looked after us so well and I wanted to do something to mark Doreen’s passing and to thank the team there.”
Manager Rob Vohra said the team was proud to support Charlie, adding that the couple had been part of the centre’s daily life for many years.
The bench now offers a peaceful spot for visitors to sit and reflect, honouring Doreen’s memory.
