It was indeed an absolute priviledge to meet and enjoy the company of Nola during our time as patients in Ward 4B TDHB. We were in a 4 bed room and Nola was such an interesting, lovely room mate for Kaye Scouller (RIP) Myra Hayman and myself. Nola talked about a book that she valued very much which I have bought from the UK since. Ten Degrees of Reckoning. Rest peacefully Nola, with love, Vonda and Myra
