Wallace MacLean

Dear Aunt Joyce I was very sad to hear that Uncle Wallace had passed away. I remember our visits to your home in Milngavie before you went to the USA. They were great fun and I was always impressed by Uncle Wallace's humour and intelligence. He will be missed. All the best.

I am an old friend of Mr. MacLeans son Rod MacLean. I have lost touch with him long ago. Can you forward this message to him for me? My name is Berta Kim, my email address is [email protected]. Thank you so very much. Berta Kim
