Graeme, I am so sorry to hear the passing of Madeline, both Janifer and Myself liked her very much. She was a very generous person, especially when I was young and working for you, on the potatoes.
I did not know of her passing until today 14/8/19. I was in the Palmerston North Hospital helping a friend to go to the Hospital for a medical check, and that was when I was told .
