 In corresondence was a letter from Bob and Mary Zastoet, accompanied by an extract from the Manly Daily describing the good work Mrs Stoddart had done for the district. For many years "Stoddy" was organist at St. Paul's Church of England, Seaforth (in fact her death occured as she might have wished, at the organ after playing the last hymn on a Sunday evening). A fund is being raised to instal a new pipe organ as a memorial, and Ron Knightley suggested we should contribute. He undertook to collect donations from Club members and forward them to the Church. In corresondence was a letter from Bob and Mary Zastoet, accompanied by an extract from the Manly Daily describing the good work Mrs Stoddart had done for the district.
