It was with great regret that we recently learnt of the death of Susan Cunliffe-Lister, Baroness Masham of Ilton.
She was a great supporter of Howlands, and the League of Friendship, having been involved with us from the early days.
She visited Howlands many times and talked easily to the members who really enjoyed her company.
In 1995 the National Trust celebrated its centenary and Howlands was asked to create a mural to hang in the Visitor Centre at Fountains Abbey.
Lady Masham unveiled it and spoke highly of the work of the members and volunteers who created it.
She will be sorely missed, but we will always remember her tremendous support and good humour.
