Mabel was a tireless visitor to Ray Astley when he was in Clínica Rotger having chemotherapy for his cancer and to David Close when he was in Son Dureta being treated for a stroke in September 2007. Mabel was present for a memorial service for Ray Astley in June 2008 when despite her own health problems she got out of the Miramar to attend but unfortunately she died two weeks later. Mabel was, as Ray Astley often said: ´a living embodiment of the Christian faith (if she had been sliced she would have been, like a piece of rock lettered through with the words of Christ)´. Her memory is joyous for those of us left and for her appreciation of a glass of whiskey. David Close and Jean McKay
