I first met Margaret on 9th September 1957, the day we started our training at Glasgow Royal Infirmary.. We became close friends and stayed in touch through the years since. Sadly ,I tried but failed to contact Margaret over the last year Now I feel so bereft at learning of her passing. My husband and I would like to attend the reception in Inverkip. My deep heartfelt sympathy to all the family. Mairi
