Ranches Ladies Newsletter

Good morning Ranches Ladies! Wishing you a great week ahead.
Annie Martin
This week, we were saddened to hear of the loss of a former Ranches Ladies member. Annie Martin passed away on 30 the May peacefully at home in Spain with her family around her.
Annie was a well loved member of Ranches Ladies for several years. She was an enthusiastic member of Carole’s Scottish dance circle where she worked very hard and became a very good dancer. She was also a member of the Spanish Circle. Her many friends in Ranches Ladies remember her as a kind, elegant lady who was always smiling.
May she rest in peace.
