To Peter and family. So sorry to hear of Helens passing. I know our paths have not crossed for many years but I have never forgotten what a lovely lady Helen was. I was your milk tanker driver when you were sharemilking on Tate Road at Brixton for Eric Harford. You were always so friendly and working hard to get your own place at Johns Road. May Helen rest in Peace and my sympathy to you all.
