Bill Edgar is a licensed private detective, specialising in... funerals. Funerals? Yes, if you would like somebody to reveal the truth at your funeral instead of somebody reading a Eulogy full of lies, Bill is the man. He is also an internationally published author - his book 'The Coffin Confessor' is a bestseller, with a TV series to follow. This is a must attend event - I assure you, you won't be disappointed. "Supporting Act": Ellen Wark, who is in charge of Administration of RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Award), will visit us to give us a brief outline of what RYLA is all about. Over the years, we have supported dozens of RYLA awardees. The most recent: Kristen 'KJ' Jewson and Sasha Kimber back in January this year. |

Wheelchair Trust Chairman Larry Murray will outline his views, followed by open discussion of the various points.
