It is a sad time for head office as we bid farewell to another of our team. Glynis Pulford who works from Durban has just completed 20 years' service and will be retiring to spend time with the grandchildren and to tackle her 'Bucket List'.For many years Glynis worked alongside Dave Sievwright and after he passed away she took on his work load and continued to run the office. Glynis has been running our shipping levy project as well as doing local fundraising in KZN and she has been a loving mum to all our crew as well.Working all on her own from the rescue base in Durban, Glynis is a multi tasker of note. Nothing phases her and she is always cool, calm and collected. She also had to have the patience of Job while the office area at the harbour entrance became a building site.A huge thank you for all the love and care and kindness you have sowed into NSRI. You will be remembered with much fondness.Glynis Pulford
