To the delight of Grace the Gulgong Community singers came and entertained with some of her favourite songs. All Hallows Catholic School paid a surprise visit along with Legacy members who presented Grace with a beautiful iced cake and a bouquet of flowers.
A special thank you service was conducted by MPS staff member Gwen Bailey and Grace’s son Ray and daughter-in-law Kathy thanked everyone for coming, especially some family members, who had travelled a great distance to be part of this special day.

School formal
