Story

Hello Everyone
I am hoping to raise money for
Ernie Morris who runs the ticket office
at Tilehurst Train station, who retires in July.
He has helped many of us out over the past 9 years and has worked for the company for 19 years.
He is a true legend, always smiling, always happy to help and certainly from my point of view he seems to save me money on my journeys too.
He is off to Thailand to live and I would like him to know how many people he has helped and how appreciated he really is.
Thank you in advance.
Louise Stevens
Tilehurst resident and frequent visitor to the train station.

You will be missed by so many people. New to reading 9 years ago, you were the first friendly face I met while commuting to Maidenhead and you probably didn’t even realise it! Happy retirement x
