See, I knew you people would know what to do :-D

Her husband Ken died over 30 years ago, while they were still living here in Canada, although he is buried over there.

You could try contacting the vicar. They, or one of the congregation, generally know what is going on in the parish.

Seems they are only a listing agent

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rightmove

There are about 4 estates agents for Halewsworth Suffolk if you google

I think I would be more inclined to write to a neightour and maybe to the old address for the new owners who may know why the bungalow was sold

Looking on www.192. She was only at the address to 2002 unless she later opted out of the public rolls

Her husband isn't listed at the address

It's says it was listed by Rightmove , not coming up with and address though for them in the area

It's a semi detached two bed bungalow . Why not ring or write to a neighbour. They may reply with some info .

If you contact the selling agent they may tell you why the house was sold

If she had dementia maybe it was sold to cover care home fees

Did she have family you can contact ,worth a try

Our family has/was friends with Lynda Kirby and her husband for many many years, but the last time we talked to her she was 'confused'. now we thought dementia or something and we lost touch. I have noticed lately that her house was sold last October, is there any way I would be able to find out if she had died or maybe just went into a home? Her address was in Halesworth, Suffolk

She would be at least as old as my Mum and she would of been 88 this year.

It would be nice to know what happened to her. Thanks
