Janitor Robert says goodbye
BLACKBURN man Robert Mathews went back to school last week - to say goodbye.
For the janitor of Blackburn Primary School, who retired at the beginning of last month, returned for a special presentation to mark the occasion.
Widower Mr Mathews, of 8 Ladeside Drive, was presented wit a gold chain by head teacher Janet Wemyss in front of all the children. Robert had been janitor at the primary school for over 13 years.
Our picture shows Robert admiring his gift while the young pupils cheer in the background. He then enjoyed a small celebratory tea with teaching and cleaning staff.
