Vale Dorothy Florence Ethel Brown

Just over a month ago Dorothy, Pam's mother wished Hugh and I well as we set off to Darwin. Within two weeks she was found to have cancer and she passed away on Monday. Hugh and I flew down early on Friday for her funeral service.This was a celebration of her life and was nicely done.
It was held at Emmanuel Church Wayville.
