8:30am Tuesday 11th August 2009 in News By Katie Adams

Staff at a Melksham care home are appealing for the relatives of one of their former residents to get in touch following her death.

Myrtle Windle, 84, known by her middle name of Pat, died on August 3 after living at Sampford Care Home in Shurnhold for the past 18 months, leaving behind a collection of personal belongings.

The home, which has no contact details for any of Mrs Windle's relatives, are hoping a family member, however distant, will come forward and reclaim the items which are described as being very personal to her family.

Any relatives can contact the home on 01225 709271 and arrange a time to come in.
