Many apologies for leaving you uninformed for so long about your Community Association. And many many thanks for keeping faith all these months. More apologies for the lapse of time in getting a few words to you.
As some of you may know, our dynamic chairman John Payne has not been at all well – for some years in fact. Early last year he had a serious heart operation which has not given him the relief he and we, his friends on the committee, had hoped. While this was going on, other members of our committee have struggled with their own personal health problems, so that we have had to cease functioning. Indeed Ramesh Morjaria, our exemplary Honorary Treasurer, passed away last year. He was an ardent supporter of CPCA and is greatly missed.
Being totally computer ignorant (in many ways a blessed relief…) I have been hopeless and helpless in making any constructive contribution to organising and sending information to members. (Once, eons ago, I wrote out an entire newsletter by hand – with illustrations – those were the days…)
We should have had an AGM much earlier, but we hope to soon, and we will need all your support to get CPCA going again. We hope to have an EGM/AGM in the autumn and will notify everyone in good time We do hope to see you there.
Audrey Hammond
President CPCA
