Reverend Martin Iball

Parish Magazine 2006

The Revd. Martin Iball first came to Harlaston on 13th June 1993 and came occasionally during 1993 and 1994 until he was appointed Priest in Charge of Harlaston on 29th January 1995 in addition to his duties at Whittington and Weeford. He remained as Priest in Charge until July 1996 when Revd. Alan Wheale became Rector. Martin then became an assistant Priest for the whole of the Mease Valley Parishes.

We are very grateful indeed to Martin for his service to the Parish of Harlaston over the last thirteen years and also for his service to the other parishes of the Mease Valley, particularly during the recent interregnum when Martin has taken many extra services.

Martin leaves us on September 24th with our grateful appreciation and thanks and very best wishes for the future.

At Rest Revd Martin Iball, aged 79

We were very sorry to hear the news taht Revd Martin Iball had passed away on June 6th at Whitby Road Residential Home in Pickering, aged 79 years. Martin had been Vicar of Oxley 1976-1980. Assistant Curate to Whittington and Weeford 1986 to 2010, Clifton, Edingale and Harlaston 1996-2006 and at Hints from 2006 - 2010. 

We who knew Martin will remember him as a very quietly spoken dedicated Reverend- always willing to listen and help in anyway he could. We were very sorry when he had to leave the Parish. 

'Grant him eternal rest, O Lord'
