An update for the Marionites:
Eric Williams was promoted to glory yesterday (Wednesday) at 7 am. He served through a number of Corps, including Marion (Seacombe), Fern Tree Gully, Ringwood and Canterbury. He was bandmaster at FTG during the early 1970s. Eric also served the community with distinction in his nursing career. He was the first male midwife in South Australia and also a nursing unit manager in Victoria. We will celebrate his life and say farewell at the Sensible Chapel, South Road, Ridleyton on Tuesday February 15 at 3pm.
Colin Wood is fighting well. After surgery yesterday he is back in ICCU at Flinders Medical Centre. Today, one of his nurses said to me the best we can do for him is pray. She was right. I'm not sure if she was speaking for my benefit, as helpless as you feel by someone's bedside, for Colin's benefit or for her own. She's still right. We can do no better and no less than to keep praying for Colin and Mavis and their family.
