[Oe List ...] another brief collegium

[the telfords]

Hello John & Ann
Will be thinking of you as you journey on.
Elaine & I will never forget when you (John) visited the community
of Murrin Bridge when we were working there - you will be pleased to know
that many ongoing positive outcomes resulted from the work done by many
ICA colleagues who lived in the community for a time.

And I have always found your writings to be thought provoking and helpful.

Not to forget the couple of times we visited you both in KL - we really
enjoyed those visits.

Blessings to you both from the beautiful Blue Mountains where the autumn
leaves
have been beautiful this year but are now experiencing some icy winds from
the Antarctic.

Peace
John & Elaine
