Cobram resident Mrs Maple mourned by town
Death of Mrs D Maple on a Saturday afternoon left Cobram bereft of a respected resident active in town and district movements. Born in Marvhoriagh she lived in Cowan for twenty years and previously in Meurtopan where she contributed as life governor of a hospital. She was a devoted worker for the Red Cross, deeply involved in local charity and public service. A large cortege marked her funeral in Cobram cemetery and a memorial service was planned at the Methodist Church.
