Later Years
James Freeman died in 1961 and Victoria spent her last years quietly in Brixton. Victoria Sanger Freeman died in August 1991. Her ashes were placed in the family plot at Margate where Sanger's 'Hall by the Sea' was — at one time — a crowd puller at the seaside town. She was the last of the great Sanger dynasty. Her obituary appeared in The Daily Telegraph on 21 August 1991.
She had a son, Pat, who followed the family footsteps as a clown. He died at an early age while performing in a circus in Switzerland.

Return to my mind with stranger pain:

Who left the house so many years ago.”
