Dynamic duo forty years ago

Eileen Shean and George Hodgson Cmg Mbevisited used to run the show

Eileen Shean came to do her annual collection of a few copies of the latest Old Diocesan magazine (issue 9).  She collects the magazines from the office and then hand delivers them to numerous ODs living in her neighbourhood.

She brought us this lovely picture that shows  her working with the then OD Secretary, George Hodgson (1931S).  This was taken in the OD office in 1983 an incredible 40 years ago. 

Should you want to pop into the office to collect a hard copy for anyone, please email us at odu@bishops.org.za or you can read the magazine (Old Diocesan Issue 9) online.  Simply CLICK HERE.
