Q: Can you give us a summary of your life?
A: I was born on the 19th of August, 1917 in Windsor. My father was away at the war and I didn't see him until I was two. I grew up, on his return - in 1919, we
01:01:00:00 moved to Caulfield where I lived until the Second World War. I went to Caulfield North State School. And the local church, and had a pleasant childhood although with memories of war. In 1937,
01:01:30:00 I'll go back a bit, I attended Caulfield North Central School, became dux there and then went to Wesley like my father on a scholarship.

During the war, in September '41, I married and had
01:03:30:00 a wonderful marriage lasting nearly 54 years. After the war I resumed my actuarial studies and qualified; I became manager of the Collective Insurance. At the age of 60 I was
