John Durack: Thank you, Ida. And I'd like to introduce those of you who haven't met her, to a very continuing thread in our lives, our neighbour Rita Taylor.
Rita Taylor:
I would just like to say I didn't come here prepared to make a speech. Matthew, you didn't let me know about this. But I would like to say I have known Mr and Mrs Durack since Mr Durack came to our property when Matthew was only a little boy about that high.
Bill Durack: And you weren't that much bigger!
Rita Taylor: I don't know about that. And over the years we have developed a wonderful friendship. Well I have developed a wonderful friendship, and have been very privileged to have Mr and Mrs Durack as neighbours. It's been really good. And I would just like to thank the boys for asking me to this, and Keith, I feel very privileged that you did, and it's been a wonderful afternoon. Thank you.
APPLAUSE
John Durack: Thanks Rita, it's great to have you here.
