« on: January 10, 2017, 03:25:45 PM »

Obviously given her age neither a shock nor a tragedy but still an extraordinary life.

Knew I knew the name, but had to wrack my brains for the context (a lady with a very similar name goes to our church!!) .  In the end, I gave in and looked at the article!!  Sad, but I doubt unexpected.

It is a familiar sounding name but I didn't know of her.  She was talked about on the news this evening.  No doubt we will hear more of her over the next few days.

What a marvellous, useful life she lived and a great age she reached!
