Tribute to Mair Waldo Thomas: On saturday 25th november, 2006, the university of wales aberystwyth alumni club in malaysia (Aber) held the 14th AGM at Faris's residence in Country Heights Kajang. I just went for lunch but skipped the AGM. Being honorary fellow I guess I had the priviledge of not attending the full meeting..heehee. I wa told before the meeting during lunch, that a dear old friend Mair Waldo Thomas passed away about a month ago. She was the secretary of OSA (old students association of the university of wales at aberystwyth) and was instrumental in forging the links with the malaysian aber...of course not without the support and undying commitment of non other than our beloved YBhg Tan Sri Datuk (Dr) Arshad Ayub and the rest of the aber alumnus in Malaysia and the university's international affairs office. I was at the Aber Easter Reunion earlier this year with Tan Sri. Little that I realise that that was going to be the last time I would see and be with Mair. I remember during her maiden visit to Malaysia years ago, I was her accompanying officer and we have been very good friends since. She will always make sure that when Tan Sri ands I are in Aberyswyth, we are as comfortable as possible. She makes everyone feel welcomed and important. A good listener, very sharp at her age, typically Welsh I guess. We will miss her. In her memory and as a tribute to her I have taken the liberty to upload some of my photos last taken with her at this year's easter reunion in aberystwyth. There is one pix taken with Prof Tecwin Jones, a world-renowned entomologist who gave the keynote address at the reunion dinner...
