Sending my sincere condolences to both Karena and Fiona on your Mum's passing - she reached a grand age and I'm sure you will treasure all the memories you will have gathered.
I remember clearly the times we shared at St. John's school and there were many. She was a lovely lady & always ready to be involved. R.I.P Jean.
