We have known Margaret Ryan since about 1981/2 when we joined the Ottery St. Mary Twinning Association. We had some great times with them on twinning trips to Ottery’s twin town, Pont l’Evêque, in Normandy. We, like Margaret and Don, were sailors and we enjoyed many holidays, and long weekends sailing to places such as Dartmouth, Guernsey, Jersey, France, Spain and Greece. She was a good crew and was never seasick! When we moved to France in 1999, they visited us each year in their caravan, which was a delight. Margaret was always great company, always cheerful, a trusty friend and we shall miss her and her voice on the phone, the only way we could contact her during this strange year of lockdowns. With our love and so many fond memories,, Barbara and David Townsend.
