  8. Absolutely stunned to read of Dulcie's passing. Dulcie, Tony and I have a strange bond in that we were all the same age with only days separating us and our mothers all beibg in the Colac hospital together. Our two families (Payne and Charity) grew up in the same neighbourhood (Johnstone Crescent) and were often the noise of the Crescent. Just knocked me rotten this morning when my daughter passed on the message about Dulcie. Deepest regards to you Tony and your family. And to Sandra, Les, Sidney, Robert and Graeme.
