ANNUAL “MIXED” Reunion LUNCHEON<br />

A very pleasant and enjoyable afternoon was enjoyed<br />

by 20 members at the Paddington RSL Club on Saturday,<br />

24th November.<br />

Unfortunately we had quite a few apologies and could<br />

not get our usual ‘Private’ room but the catering manager,<br />

Warwick, arranged our ‘Reserved’ seating in the bistro area.<br />

We asked our Honorary Chaplain, Bran Hogan, to offer<br />

Grace, after which we all chose and paid for our own meal.<br />

Everyone happily mixed in and there was plenty of<br />

‘chatter’!<br />

We were delighted to have the <strong>RAAMC</strong> <strong>Association</strong> Inc<br />

(NSW Branch) President, Theo Dechaufepie, be present<br />

with us.<br />

After the meal we adjourned to a ‘Private’ lounge room<br />

upstairs where our President, Derek Cannon, thanked<br />

everyone for their attendance especially to Ray and Theo<br />

(Summary)<br />

and sadly reminded us of our good members who had<br />

passed away during the year. He also read out the names of<br />

new members who have joined our <strong>Association</strong>.<br />

He wished everyone a HAPPY <strong>CHRISTMAS</strong> and hoped to<br />

meet us next ANZAC Day.<br />

Derek called on our Patron, COL Ray Hyslop OAM, to say<br />

a few words. Ray said he was pleased to be with us and<br />

spoke some very kind words about the late John de Witt.<br />

Our <strong>Association</strong> thanks the following members and<br />

friends for their attendance;<br />

Our President, Derek Cannon, Our Patron, Ray Hyslop<br />

OAM, Mrs. Edna Cannon, Mick Carlson, Barry Collins OAM,<br />
