[Oe List ...] Carol Pierce

[Isobel and Jim Bishop]

Dear colleagues,
Carol spent one year here in the Sydney House with Joe, in 1969.
We learnt so much from Carol-  I remember she smashed a glass on the  
floor as some of us were leaving to go to the first ITI in Singapore,  
August '69-   dramatically symbolising that we who went- would come  
home as vastly different and deeply changed-  people, and she was right.

We thank God for her life and service to humankind.
Isobel BIshop.
