| In Memoriam |
The very dear Shelagh Lawrence (née Luker) has recently lost her life. This will be a massive shock to all those who knew her, especially those who spent time with her at the Pate's Grammar School for Girls reunion of 1964 last October. Her son Ben, would like for all of her school friends to know the sad news.
Shelagh was a good friend - so kind and caring. Myself and her close friend Debbie Kerr (née King) will miss her greatly. Shelagh was a quiet person and didn't wish to have a funeral. RIP Shelagh. Xx
