My personnel thanks to those that marched on ANZAC Day.

I hope that you all managed some fun times catching up with mates for a few tall stories and some well earnt drinks.

On behalf of The Corps, I extend my thanks to TS Voyager Naval Cadets for their support on ANZAC Day. The Cadets carrying our banner were a credit to their Unit and themselves. Thank You to Lt. Ashley ALF and TS Voyager.

May I also thank Commissionaire Patricia MacCLAREN-LOWE for laying the Wreath at our Corps Memorial during the ANZAC Day Service held at The Repatriation Hospital Heidelberg on April 21st

I am sad to have to inform you of the passing of Mrs. Lorraine SMITH on Wednesday April 26^th, after a long battle and courageous battle with her health.

Lorraine Smith, wife of long time Corps Member Commissionaire Clive SMITH, accompanied Clive to many Corps functions and it was always a pleasure have her company with us.

A funeral Service will be conducted at Le Pine Funeral Services, Main Road, Eltham at 1000 on Friday 5^th of May.

I will attend and represent The Corps of Commissionaires Association.
