We were Corps Officers of Penang Corps (November 1959- May 1962) During this period we worked with Major and Mrs. Roy Page for about a year. He dedicated our first child Gladys in 1960. They farewelled and were appointed to Children's' Home Singapore.
Their successors were Captain and Mrs. William Davies who took over the Home in 1961.
He dedicated our second child, Stephen in 1962. We then farewelled and moved to Kuching, East Malaysia. Three years later, we were reappointed to Penang, this time to succeed Captain and Mrs. Davies at the Boys' Home and Primary School.
They served only one term of four years in the same appointment, so not many folk outside Penang knew them. They returned to UK and were Corps officers till they retired. We met them once at Bromley when we were living at Beckenham.
Major William Davies was promoted to Glory on 6th March 2012.
