    My wife, Christine and I send our deepest sympathy to all the friends and family who, like us, will miss Augusta. I only met my late Aunt twice but I will never forget her visit to England nor my stay at Durham with her and my Uncle Dennis. She always took an interest in our lives especially when we sent her long letters with pictures of places we had seen on our adventures. Such a pity we could not make the trip over to see her again.
    I know this must be a difficult time for you all and although there is nothing practical we can do to help we hope knowing how loved Augusta was will be some comfort to you.

    With Sympathy,
    Tony (and Christine)
