17 November 2023
The last '67 luncheon for the year was held on 17th November. The group of fifteen enjoyed the hospitality of Club York in Sydney's CBD. Forty-three apologies were received so, in total we are in touch regularly with more than 60% of our year. Basil Simmons conveyed messages from many of those who couldn’t make it. Medical issues affecting many, including Charlie Jennings, Rob Tonner, David van Nooten, Charles Avery, John Cobb, Robbi Newman – we wish you a speedy recovery; and travel, including Steve Bargwanna, Clem Foster, Malcolm Lamb, Rob Willcocks. After lunch we heard from Wayne Rabjohns about his successful non-invasive treatment of prostate cancer. (If you’d like to know more about this you can email Wayne at [email protected] and he’d be happy to share his story). We also heard from Sandy Munro, who related stories about life in Moree. You can watch this in the attached video. There are also numerous photos taken during the afternoon which you can scroll through. Other News: Our ’67 Vietnam Vets, Kicka Gordon, Peter Hacon, Andy Bligh, Brian Bowman plus John Buchanan ’68 and wives attended the School for Remembrance Day celebrations. The Vets received invitations to participate in a chapel service followed by lunch in recognition of their war service. By all accounts, this was a very special event and a day to remember.
