Michael and Family,

Just a line from an old colleague of your mother's.

I was Head of Department at Hills Road Sixth form College, between 1978 and 1992. During the earlier part of that period your Mum worked (I think part-time) for my Biology Dept. Human physiology was her passion. She was a most lovely teacher - gentle always, immensely well-informed and disciplined in her preparations and presentations. We enjoyed having much in common and I did value those visits to to the house in Storey's Way. Your Dad (Roger) was a memorable character. I feel sorry not to have seen her at all in the past decade. She was a good age. I'll come if I may on Tuesday 3rd. Best wishes
