Memories

Dianne Skull

I have known Bryan from day dot almost. His family lived on Lestrange Street and my family lived in Conyngham Street with the Glenunga Ovals between us.
We both attended Linden Park Demonstration School from Grade 1 to 7.
We both had a connection with the Glenunga Uniting (Methodist) Church and attended youth group there.
Bryan’s mother and father, Dawn and Leon Charlton, were customers and friends of my parents, Bill and Iris Corey. Dad had a butcher shop on Glen Osmond Road and Bryan remembered receiving fritz from my Dad to eat on his way home on the back of his mother’s bike sitting in a cane chair.
It was a pleasure to work with Bryan on the Committee to organise the Class of 62 Linden Park Demonstration School Reunion held in 2012 and subsequently with the production of our two books – Our Fathers and Our Mothers.
Bryan will be missed by many but I will miss our chats and his friendship.
