Andy Sloan meeting Prince Philip After the sad news of the death of the Duke of Edinburgh on Friday, we asked you to get in touch with your memories of seeing him. Prince Philip carried out countless engagements in Dorset over the years, his most recent being the unveiling of a statue of the Queen Mother in Poundbury alongside the Queen in 2016. He also visited the area in 2009 when he did a walkabout on Weymouth beach with the Queen. Andy Sloan of Weymouth met Prince Philip on this occasion. He said: It was an honour to have met this legend. He made me laugh pretty hard. There was a group of women playing volleyball 50 metres behind me and he leaned in with a naughty smile and said I bet you wish you were over there’.
Letters to Santa are not only reserved for children, however. Take Killeen resident Donna Fry, for example.
After seeing an advertisement for the âLetters to Santaâ special section in the Killeen Daily Herald, Fry recently wrote a letter to Santa asking for her husband to be home for Christmas. Jessie Fry, her husband, is a resident of Indian Oaks Nursing Home in Harker Heights.
âIt was actually a joke for me, because I really knew there wasnât any way he could come out,â Donna Fry said. âBecause, if he came out, it would be twice as hard on him to go back in.â
