This afternoon we will be celebrating the life of the late Sue Sperry who passed away last week. Sue served as our PRO in our Port Elizabeth branch for many years. She is an integral part of our family and contributed substantially to our mission of Saving Lives on South African waters through her contributions in Port Elizabeth. We missed her at the blessing of the new station at Port Elizabeth this weekend and we all stood in silent respect to reflect on her life. We celebrate her life and the legacy of her contribution.May she rest in peace in the comfort of her contribution to humanity and the love and values of the greater Sea Rescue Community.Sue Sperry (back) initiated the successful "Challenge 100" fundraising competitions for schools Sue Sperry (back) initiated the successful 'Challenge 100' fundraising competitions for schools
