I was born on East London on 15th April 1925. I married Paul Edward Richards (better known as Bill) in 1945. At the age of 4 I came to Johannesburg. I went to Yeoville Convent in primary school and then to St Mary's. When I left school I worked for the Canadian Government.

I was married at 20 and had Maree at 21. When my husband sold his shares in Geen & Richards he opened Paul Richards & Sons. I then did quite a bit of interior decorating. We also were part of the first 12 people to open the Organic Market at the Michael Mount School, Bryanston.

When Paul Richards & Sons was closed I worked for Rivonia Estates and then 5th Avenue Properties. I retired 3 years ago.

My husband died in 1997 and I then went to live with my daughter Maree. We spend most of our time looking after Ben my great great grandson - quite a handful.
