How are they getting along?

As members respond to the notice of AGM and send in their apologies, where needed, the state of health among us becomes more apparent than usual.
-----While some of those who won't be there are off to other lands and climes - Gordon Stevenson to Irkutsk in Siberia or, in Pat Duggan's case, sunning himself in Riverton at the bottom of South Island - many more are coping with their own or their partner's ill health.
-----Privacy concerns prevent me from repeating the touching tales that come through, but look through the list of apologies and wonder just how members are getting along, who would normally be with us in Taupo and can't make it.
