It is with great sadness that we say farewell to our friend,
Wendy Collins.
Wendy joined our croquet club in 2011 and quickly became a
‘croquet-holic’, enjoying both the game and the friendship of the members. Being a game of skill, planning and certain
amount of cunning, Wendy was able to display her intelligence and sense of fun.
She served as our canny Treasurer from 2013 until 2017, and
was an excellent member of our executive team until illness prevented her
continuing involvement.
Her droll humour, insightful contributions to discussions,
care for others, and her love of her family were clearly evident to all who met
her. She approached her illness with
calm, strength and bravery.
As we were heartened by her company, we are saddened at her
passing. It was a privilege to provide a guard of honour at her funeral service on 13th November, 2017.
Vale, dear friend.
