Large parts of our earlier Durham life were connected with Aileen! Without her I (Alison) would never have become a Relate (still Marriage Guidance in those days) counsellor, which set a very satisfying direction for the rest of my working life. And when she ran Gateway World Shop, the fair trade shop in the centre of Durham, Geoff chaired the Board and they worked well and closely for those years. We shared many good Christmas parties! She had a wonderful combination of sharpness - mind and wit! She was great fun to be with and work with, and we will miss her.
