We wish to convey to you Colin our sincere sympathy on the passing of Alison. There is little doubt it will be an agonizing break for the whole family.

It has been a long time since we were "best friends" and "marble champions" of the Ellerslie Convent but the memories remain.

Keep strong dear friend and may Alison rest in peace but be always with you.
