[Advisors] AGM - postponement

[Gareth Shearman]

Hi Bev and all

I have just read notes about Gary.

Gary is currently in hospital and pain is being well controlled.

He appreciated the trophy very much. It is in his hospital room.
They are trying to assess his condition. He is more alert in the afternoon and early evening. He knows people.

My brother and his wife have come today to see what he can do to help me. They wanted to see Gary too

I have been with him during dinner most days. He eats better if I am there.

Your comments will be read to him. Thank you all.

Mae Shearman

Garth did get to have a short visit with Gareth. It sounds that Gareth is now transitioning to this next step on his special and wonderful journey on this earth.
