Lanyon Bowdler team member retires after 46 years
Christmas was tinged with a little sadness for staff at Shropshire law firm Lanyon Bowdler as they said their fond farewells to a member of the team who has been with the firm for the last 46 years!
Wendy Wilkinson, a fee earner in the residential property department, started work as a junior typist for Lanyon Bowdler straight after leaving Technical College in 1965, when the firm was known by its previous name of J C H Bowdler & Sons. Wendy then progressed to becoming a secretary to one of the partners, before moving south to Sussex for several years.
On her return to Shrewsbury in 1973 she re-joined the firm and eventually became a fee earner in residential conveyancing and plot sales until reducing her hours to part-time in 2007.
In retirement Wendy plans to do more travelling both in this country and abroad and hopes to work on her garden.
Commenting on Wendy’s retirement, partner and head of the property department Andrew Evans says “Wendy has been a hard working, conscientious employee with a wealth of knowledge garnered over many years with Lanyon Bowdler. We are sad to be losing her but she has earned the time to relax with family and friends and to enjoy her travelling”
