Joan Vance
A long-term member of the Politics and Current Affairs group, Joan Vance had a particular interest in issues surrounding Health and Education, often reminding the class of their importance Joan loved to read and was a member of Page Turners (formerly E-books) for many years. A skilled 500 player, Joan and her cards partner Patsy Bollard were known as a force to be reckoned with if playing against them at Cards 500! A former nurse and passionate and determined advocate for people with a disability, Joan drew on her own experience of a chronic condition to work to improve outcomes for people in Benalla with disabilities. We will miss her friendly smile and sharp intellect.
Jennifer Campbell
A member of U3A for over 10 years, avid reader and member of Page Turners, Jennifer Campbell, passed away suddenly on May 11 2024.
It was with much sadness that we learned of Jenny’s passing. She was a valued member of our book group for many years, both when Helen Scheller was organising it and later when we regrouped under the name Page Turners.
We enjoyed her insightful comments and love of books.
We offer condolences to her family and friends.
Meg Dillon for Page Turners
