Part of the friendship forged at Seale-Hayne Agricultural College, we shared many of life's milestones. It is now hard to realize that Gill is no longer there for the occasional catch-up 'phone call. I shall miss her.

I shall be there in spirit togather with our friend Penelope on 26th September.

My mother, Penelope Carmichael (nee Tait), met Gill at Seale-Hayne Agricultural College and was the start of a life-long friendship. As a result I was Martin's godson, a role that Gill took over after Martin's untimely death. I have wonderful memories of visiting Martin and Gill in Askerswell - always greeted wonderfully and always well fed and watered (similar to Gill's wonderful Connemaras)!

I'm afraid that neither my Mother nor I will be able to attend Gill's funeral - I will certainly miss her.
