I appreciate that it is not a lot of notice and that many of you are
overseas based and would be unable to come. But if you can, it would be
useful if you could let me know if you are planning to attend. I am
also compiling a book of condolences if you have any messages you would
like passed to Frank's family.
Kind Regards,
Becky Mann
