To the Hunt family please accept our sympathy for the loss a very special lady who has contributed to the district and region by ensuring the local history has been captured in her writings. It is a permeant legacy that will be enjoyed by others for generations to come. Mrs. Hunt's book Campbelltown - Rongotea is a constant companion beside my chair and to which I refer to constantly for information.
RIP
