OTU Class 4/70 Members
Trevor Ranford (2/72) has announced that the funeral of his brother David Ranford (4/70) is to be held on Friday, 28 February 2025 at 10am at the Harrison Rivergum Chapel, corner of Golden Grove Road and Jack High Lane, Ridgehaven, SA.
At David’s request please were colour! Also wear an OTU Lapel badge or OTU tie to identify yourself as a Scheyvillian!
I look forward to hearing of a good turn-up of Scheyvillians and a good report (with photos) for The Scheyvillian newsletter (due out early April).
Following the request for names for the prizes, two Class 4/70 came forward and advised of their awards, and Trevor advised that their sister, who was 13 at the time and attended the graduation, had written a school project on David’s graduation and they found the details of the project were in her files. David was awarded the Gordon Sharp Memorial Award. Three to go: Leadership, Sports and Skill at Arms!
The association originally only had Malter and Snashall as receiving awards.
