Peter Schar – Adelaide - I spent yesterday afternon with my mum/your Auntie Monica. Although her mind is bright, age is quickly catching up with her body. She uses a walking stick but has not yet fully progressed to a walking frame, although she has one. Unfortunately she does not feel fit enough to make the long trip to Cairns for the funeral. I sat down with her yesterday and together we wrote this wonderful tribute to her brother Laurie
