A message from Meredith’s husband, Garry Robinson.

 

'I’m replying to the invitation to attend the 50 Year Reunion on behalf of my late wife Meredith Arnold. Meredith was School Captain at Kilvington in 1973. 

 

Unfortunately, Meredith succumbed to pancreatic cancer in Brisbane June 2011.

 

If anyone asks, you could say she practised medicine in Victoria, Arnhem land, Northern Territory and Queensland. She is survived by four talented and successful children who are pursuing law, economics and medicine in Singapore, Amsterdam and Brisbane.'
