She was instrumental in the formation of Group 74, a past president of the Horticultural Society, conducted the Junior Garden Club and ran a business of ber own as well. Her many activities for, this com- munlty over the years are too numerous to mention here in any detail but her unstinting devotion will long. be remembered and she will be missed. She will be missed even more thougb for ber unfailing hospitality. Her door was always open and the cof- fee pot was always on. Tbe good news is that she basn't gone too far away so we hope that she will continue to give us the benefit of ber warm, personality and considerable experience as she bas in the past. She assures me that she will be deligbted to entertain ber old friends in ber new borne on Cochrane Street in Wbitby. I'm sure we ail wish them botb well.
