VALE  Anne Kathleen Hrabanek.  
Anne will be remembered by many members and we are sorry to report her recent death on 31st July aged 90. Anne joined our Society in January 1989 when it was called the Albert and Gold Coast Genealogical Society. She was an active long term member, writing an article for our 'Rootes' journal as recently as June 2015. If you have Oxfordshire research please recollect that Anne donated many of the Oxfordshire resources that we hold.
​RIP Anne.
