We were very sad to hear of the death recently of former Mayor Mrs Margaret Sansum .
Margaret joined the Council as one of its first Councillors when it was formed in 1996, and was elected Mayor in 1999/2000. Margaret earned the respect of her fellow Councillors with her quiet but firm manner. وہ کردار کی ایک ہوشیار جج تھیں اور مشکل اور پیچیدہ حالات میں واضح فیصلے پر انحصار کی جاسکتی ہیں لیکن محتاج افراد کے لئے ہمیشہ شفقت اور ہمدردی کے ساتھ۔.
مارگریٹ نے میئر کی حیثیت سے اپنے تمام عوامی فرائض وقار کے ساتھ انجام دیئے اور ہر ایک کے ساتھ جس کی ملاقات ہوئی اس میں وہ بہت پسند اور مقبول تھا. البتہ, she often preferred to work behind the scenes to find new ways for the Council to help and support ordinary people in Dover. Both as Mayor and as a Councillor she guided the Council through its early years with her long experience of living, working and bringing up a family in the Town.
Our condolences go to Margaret’s family and friends at this sad time.
