We were neighbours of Jim and Roha for some years at Steel Road West Plains, and later we ladies joined the Forget Me Not Garden Club. Roha was a hard working and forthright lady for whom I had a great deal of respect. We shared an interest in family, farming, and flowers, but not golf i'm afraid. Roha never stopped she was always busy. May she rest now.
Our Condolences to the Macdonald Family.
