I met you once and my memory of you and Barbara will last for ever. Your partnership is over - but not the memory.

To dearest Geoff, I was saddened to hear of the loss of your wonderful father. My own father often talked at home about the "invincible" cricket team setting sail for England and being forced to chase 400 runs and successfully getting there many years ago. I met Bill several times both at the L.J.H. Caboolture office and your home for family festivities - a man that always made an impression on those he met. I wish yourself and your family strength and peace and may happy memories - which are the legacy of love- carry you all together through this difficult time. Thinking especially of you on Friday Regards Suzie B.
