Maureen
I was saddened to hear about Maureen. Having first met her when I took part in Back To The Track, she was a very friendly person and would help anyone. Our pathes crossed on a number of other occasions at Corowa and a Trackers reunion. It was very nice to have known Maureen, RIP.

I am still waiting for further details. There have been a number of shocked people on the phone in the past 24 hours. Please help to let people know. Unfortunately my data base doesn't include all the people who Maureen knew.

Thank you Maureen. R.I.P.
The President and Members of Khaki Vehicle Enthusiasts Inc. extend their sympathies to Maureens family.
Maureen was our Treasurer for many years resigning only this year and was always ready to help with the running of the Corowa Swim-In. Maureen and Brian first came to Corowa many many years ago and she was always a fun loving person who fitted in well with the rest of us. We will miss her but we will not forget her. Thank you Maureen. Rick Cove President KVE inc.

On Monday 27th September there was a lovely farwell for Maureen. More than 150 people were there from most Australian states and also from overseas (thanks Henri).
Maureens final ride was in Les Bells 6X6 Dodge. Many lovely things were said and a few laughs had as well. The wake held at Maureens home was well attended and our thanks go to Rita for her hard work.

Maureen Bell
It is a honour to her memory and family to see such recognition.
I was at the funeral of a veteran cook from aldergrove base. (signals) A really nice guy, 6 people showed up myself his realtor, wife, 2 daughters and a couple of people nobody knew and they left but was visible touched .If I wasn't a outsider I would have contacted the paper, another soldier died to-day and the legion. Least we forget
